When and where do you meet?
While in COVID mitigation, we will be meeting indoors with limited capacity seating and with comprehensive safety measures in place (see further below for details). Our Sunday service will begin at 11:15am and will run approximately one hour with the main worship in the sanctuary. We will also have a limited children's ministry and youth group program in other parts of the building for those who register. In order to safely distance our capacity for the service is as follows: 100 for sanctuary, 50 for gym/youth group room (youth group), and 50 for the children's ministry in the fellowship hall on the lower level. Once we reach capacity, we will close registration.
Covid Protocol Update: We are asking anyone who experiences a fever or fever-like symptoms to refrain from attending any in-person ICC events until at least 7 days after the symptoms have subsided. We are also recommending those who experience these symptoms to get COVID tested if possible.

What steps are being taken to ensure the safety of all attendees?
Your safety is of the utmost importance to us. Therefore in addition to limiting the number of people who can occupy a room (in conjunction with CDC and the state of Illinois guidelines) we want you to know that:
1. We have truncated our live worship to approximately one hour so people are not gathered in one room for an extended period of time.
2. All the rooms we use (e.g. sanctuary, fellowship hall, gym) have their own dedicated roof-top HVAC units with a high-filtration system, which means that the indoor air is continuously refreshed with the outdoor air instead of being stagnant or recycling the same air within the room.
3. We are logging all attendees and committed to contact tracing and communicating all affected immediately if a COVID case ever arises.

In order to register, you must adhere to the following:
- A greeter will take my temperature before entering the church building. If it is above 99.9 degrees, I will not attend.
- I am not experiencing any symptoms of sickness (fever of greater than 99.9° at any time in the past 7 days, cough, body aches, new loss of taste or smell, etc.)
- I have not had contact with a person confirmed or suspected to have Covid-19 for more than 14 days and have been practicing Illinois safety guidelines.
- If you were traveling or even staying in town and social distancing was not practiced, we ask you to respectfully decline attending an in person service at this time.
What should I wear?
When you come to our service, you will find people dressed anywhere from jeans and t-shirts to business casual attire.
What about my children?
As stated above, we will be running a limited in-person program for our elementary and pre-school aged children and our youth (6th-12th grades). We are asking at least one parent to volunteer to serve with the children if your children is participating in the children's ministry. The youth group will meet for small groups alternating between 6th, 10th, 11th, & 12th graders on one Sunday and 7th, 8th, & 9th graders on alternating Sundays. (Please note which group is up on your registration). For more information on our Children's Ministry, click here and more information on our youth ministry "Catalyst" click here.

How can I learn more about ICC?
If you are visiting us for the first time, be sure to text "iccnew" to 97000 to learn more about ICC. Please complete the online form from your phone and we will be sure to follow up with you. We would love to meet and talk with you!
We also host a Welcoming Lunch every few months after service. These lunches are held at a nearby church member’s house, and will give you an opportunity to enjoy a good meal, meet some of ICC’s leaders, find out more about our church and get answers to any questions that you may have about our church or ministries. These will begin again as restrictions and safety concerns ease.
