Dear Parents, Grandparents, and Volunteers: Lockport Alliance Church is happy to announce that we are reopening SUNDAY MORNING Children's Ministry on September 13, 2020! With COVID19 still a threat to us, much thought and prayer has gone into trying to make our classrooms as safe as possible for the kids. We have reviewed the reopening guidelines for several schools, churches and day camps, and many are using plans similar to LAC's, so we hope this will be an easy adjustmen...t for our children. We will continue to do our best to make learning about Jesus fun, even with all the social distancing guidelines that need to be in place. We are aware that many of us have different views and concerns about all those things. Our approach has been to keep in mind the responsibility we have to keep our volunteers, children, and their families safe as this pandemic continues. Please know that loving and caring for our children is the most important thing to us! Before we can open LAC Children's Ministry, we need to collect some important information from you to help us with this process. If you have not done so already, please see below the complete copy of LAC Children's Ministry Safety Reopen Plan - Phase 2.
