Winter Weather Procedure

Winter Weather Procedure

If there is severe winter weather in the area on a Sunday morning, the church will remain open unless there is a level three snow emergency and the roads have been closed.  However:

  1. If you have a responsibility at the church, and you feel unsafe traveling due to the weather, do not risk coming out.  Those who are here will manage without you.  We do not want anyone taking unnecessary risks to be here.
  2. If there has been recent heavy snowfall or ice, it is possible that the parking lot may not yet be fully cleared. Be mindful of this if you have difficulty on snow or ice.  We will do all that we can to make sure the lot is plowed and salted as quickly as possible.

If there is severe winter weather in the area on a Wednesday, the church programs will generally follow what Springfield Schools are doing for that day.  If Springfield Schools have closed, then services at the church will likely be canceled that evening.  If the weather is okay in the morning, but turns bad later in the day, forcing the cancelation of services, we will attempt to spread the word through the contacts available in the Kidcheck program.
