COVID-19 Updates

Redwood Park Church started the process of re-opening our building and programs in stages. We have been following government protocols in order to make sure that we don’t just keep our church safe, but the entire community of Thunder Bay. We’ve had to adjust to changing government guidelines as medical professionals learn more about COVID-19, sometimes on a weekly basis. It has been an incredible season of learning and re-training for the staff and our volunteers. Our mission has not changed, we've simply adapted to move forward in a manner that is safe, effective, and better suited to meet the growing needs of our community.


----------

Update (March 2021):  Currently, we are in a grey lockdown. We are unable to meet in person, which places us in Stage 1 (see below). All of our in-person programs and services are suspended until restrictions lift. We continue to have an online streamed service every Sunday at 10:30am.

    • Registration for each Sunday will open the Monday before. 
    • We ask that you consider registering for only a few services every month to allow more people to experience an in-person gathering. If we see that we have more space open, or that more people want to come than the space we have, we will adjust the registration and get in touch with you.
