Inclement Weather

It is that time again when the possibility of inclement weather increases. In order to be proactive, we would like to remind you of our service cancellation or change procedures:

If a service is cancelled, you will be e-mailed a cancellation notice through Constant Contact. If you are not receiving our regular midweek e-mails, then you are not signed up. If you would like to sign up to receive the church e-mails, please include your e-mail address on a blue card and mark the box “Add to e-mail loop.” Place the completed card in the offering box.

There will also be an announcement posted on our website faithcommunity.com. The calendar will note the closure on the appropriate date. We also use KMBC Channel 9 to announce closures. If you suspect that inclement weather has caused a service cancellation or schedule change, tune into KMBC on television or their website KMBC.com.

Last year we added two new items to our weather policy:
1. “Snow Service” – There may be times when the weather is not bad enough to cancel, but warrants a change in service times to give Sunday School and other workers an opportunity to stay home. A Snow Service will mean:

• We will only have one service at 10 am
• There will be no Sunday School

2. Inclement Weather “Text Message”
To sign up to receive weather notifications on your cell phone, go to the following website and follow the instructions given: Broadtexter

Please use your own good judgment when making the decision whether to drive when the weather is questionable.
