Clemson UMC Indoor Worship 

The main doors of each worship space will be opened at 10:15am for the Vine service in the Christian Life Center and the Traditional service in the Worship Center. Both services begin at 10:30am.
We ask everyone ages 3 and up to please have a mask on that covers your mouth and nose as you enter the buildings and to maintain social distancing of six feet or more from others. Masks are required - please don’t wear gaiters. Hand sanitizer stations will be readily available. Greeters who look forward to welcoming you to worship will take temperatures to ensure that they are under 100.4 degrees, and will help you find a seat in the worship space. Because masks are required, singing will be allowed during worship. If you have your cell phone with you, please scan our new QR code which allows you to sign in to worship and see links to the service, giving, prayer requests, etc. Using the QR code is important for contact tracing for indoor worship. If the QR code doesn’t work, use your browser to go to https://linktr.ee/ClemsonUMC.
A nursery will be available from 10:15-11:45am in room 406 in the Christian Life Center. 

• Nursery workers will wear a mask at all times and will sanitize the room afterwards.
• Parents may drop off children in the Christian Life Center starting at 10:15am.
• Children ages 3 years and up are required to wear a mask in the nursery.
• Temperatures will be checked when entering the building. If the child has a temperature above 100.4 they will not be able to stay.
• Snacks will not be given out at this time. Parents may pack bottles or individual snacks for their child. Please put your child’s name on bottles and sippy cups if you bring them. Please provide diapers and wipes for your child.
• Pick up will be at the outside door of the nursery following the Vine Worship Service and the Traditional Worship Service. This is to ensure social distancing in the hallways at all times. If there is inclement weather, parents may pick up at the interior door but are responsible for social distancing.  

Vine Kids & Pray Ground

• All children 3 years and up are required to wear a mask.  
• Vine Kids will be dismissed from the worship service following the instruction of the worship leader. Two Vine Kids volunteers will accompany the children to the CLC conference room (402). For Pray Ground at the Traditional service, children will be dismissed from the service following the instruction of the worship leader. Two Pray Ground volunteers will accompany the children to the Worship Center overflow room directly behind the Sanctuary.
• There will be individual carpet squares for children to sit on to ensure social distancing.  
• Plastic clipboards and individual craft supplies will be given to the children if the lesson requires those supplies. The clipboards will be sanitized following usage. Craft supplies will be disposed of following usage. 
• Children will return to the worship space during the concluding song and rejoin their families for dismissal.  

When the worship service is over you will be instructed how to exit. The Vine will leave through the doors to the right of the stage. Traditional will exit through the same doors that were used for entry.
