The Christian faith encourages us not to worry, don't be afraid, don't panic. God is with us, and He promises to never leave us or forsake us. Be encouraged today!
Be invitational, and let's invite people to experience the hope of Jesus this Easter. We will be streaming our services all day on Sunday at 10am, 11:30am, 1pm, 3pm, 5pm, and 7pm. Tune in live on our Facebook and YouTube pages.
This Friday, Good Friday, you and your family are invited to take part in an interactive online experience that invites you to consider the events leading up to Easter. You will have the chance to pause, reflect and pray in the comfort of your own home. Premiering at 10am, on Friday, April 10, you may also choose to take communion during the experience. Simply prepare by having some grape juice and a bread-like item (a cracker, a roll or a piece of bread) on hand to participate. Visit our Events page on Friday to join us!

If you are not tech savvy, we have prepared both an instructional video and written instructions.
If you do not have a smartphone or cannot download the app, we can use the last 4 digits of your phone number, the app simply expedites the check in process.
Seating will be managed in accordance with CDC recommendations.
The CDC recommends wearing face masks in public settings when other social distancing measures are difficult to maintain. Wearing a face mask may limit exposure to respiratory droplets and may help prevent people who have COVID-19 from spreading the virus.
Yes, we will sing in our services.
Overflow seating is available on campus with the live streamed service on screen.
At our 8:30 service, kids are encouraged to sit with their families in the Worship Center, or in the Oneighty Auditorium during our service.

We encourage those in "at-risk" categories to use their best judgement in deciding whether or not to engage online or in person.
Everyone will exit using the doors directly behind the stage. Dismissal will be staggered in order to allow for social distancing. While not in a formal manner, we do ask that you exit your row after those seated immediately in front of you leave their row.

The coffee shop will be open with seating available in the Courtyard area. Note: All water fountains are turned off in accordance with CDC recommendations. Bottled water is available at the Welcome Center.
Staff and volunteers will be cleaning and disinfecting all surfaces before and after each service. All high-volume areas and hard surfaces will be thoroughly sanitized, as well as, the restrooms. We use hospital-grade sanitizing solutions and an electrostatic sprayer that allows us to thoroughly and safely disinfect seating and surfaces in minutes. For personal use, additional hand-sanitizer stations are available throughout campus.
Anyone who is sick or displays COVID-19 symptoms as defined by the CDC, should stay home and participate in one of our online gatherings. If you are notified by a medical professional that you have tested positive and were on Union Chapel campus starting 2 days before illness onset, please notify Candace Ford at ford@unionchapel.com.
If you are not ready to come back, we understand. We are in a time of great change and life is far from normal for most people. If you and/or your family are uncomfortable attending an in-person gathering at this time, we encourage you to continue to connect with us online and even consider hosting a Watch Party.
In our services we are encouraging verbal greetings and friendly waves.
