Reducing Safe, Spacious & Sanitized Protocols

We worked hard to create a number of safe, spacious & sanitized protocols to reopen our onsite campuses the first weekend of October 2020 at Christ Fellowship Miami. They can be found here. Now that national and local infection rates are reducing and the vaccine is rolling out we are looking to systematically reduce our protocols in waves. Our desire is to give our guests greeter freedom while still staying safe. Sharing our past, current and future plans in case they help you develop plans at your church.
