REGATHERING AT SECOND-PONCE
In June, our deacons approved a 5-phase regathering plan that was rooted in the health data and metrics provided by the City of Atlanta. At the time this plan was approved, the city and Second-Ponce were in Phase 2. Based on a spike in COVID cases and hospitalization, Atlanta has regressed to Phase 1 and we must do the same. Below are the current guidelines for phase 1 which include closing our church office. Voicemail will be closely monitored and mail will still be collected.
PHASE 1: STAY AT HOME
General Guidance
· Stay home except for essential trips
· Wear face masks in public
· Wash your hands frequently
· Clean public and high touch areas frequently
· Practice social distancing
Church Activities
· Virtual worship services, Sunday School and Wednesday evening prayer call
· No childcare
· No in-person youth groups
· Church office is closed (The voicemail will be closely monitored and mail will still be collected)
· No outside group meetings
Metrics for Advancement
· Consistent decrease over a 14-day span using a 7-day trailing average of:
o COVID cases
o COVID hospitalizations
o Percent of positive COVID tests
· Percent of hospital and critical care capacity remains above 50%
· Continue to Phase 2 after reaching and sustaining Phase 1 metrics

Worship
Worship at Second-Ponce offers the gifts of music, prayer, message and scripture. Our hope is that the depth of our worship both honors God and engages our own intellect and curiosity. Here, we value everyone’s faith expression in a spirit of hospitality and truth.
Community
We believe God wants us to genuinely care for one another, and we are deliberate in making sure everyone feels connected to this church family. Everything we do, be it worship, mission service, small group study or fellowship, intentionally builds community with each other and with God.
Mission
By combining partnerships and hands-on service, Second-Ponce seeks to “take the whole gospel to the whole person,” as Jesus demonstrated during his ministry on earth. We aim to offer hope and model love through deep and long-term connections to local and global missions organizations.
Discipleship
We are a Christ-centered church family equipping people to discover God’s call for their lives. Through intentional prayer, scripture study, mission and fellowship, we continue our development as followers of Christ.
