Snow or Inclement Weather Closing Policy Please Post This Notice Where You Can Find It When You Need It

The weather has turned cooler, and it’s time to review our policy with regard to snow and collateral closings. Not only heavy snow, but also icy conditions or a power failure can cause a cancellation. This is particularly true after dark. If the weather outside is frightful, call before coming. We will attempt to alert you of any closings. However, sometimes that is impossible, so here are the tips you may use to prevent coming here to a closed building.

On Sunday, if weather conditions seem questionable, call the church at 703-820-4506. When you hear the recording, press #5 - News to learn of cancellations

You also may check the home page of our website: www.fallschurchcoc.org

During the week, program closings are linked to the Fairfax County Public Schools, as follows:

On Tuesday: If schools are closed or have a two-hour delayed opening on Tuesday, Ladies Bible Class will not meet.

On Wednesday: There will be no mid-week service if schools are closed due to inclement weather, whether school has been cancelled all day or closes early, or if all evening activities are cancelled.

The following are ways in which we will try to contact you:

1) If you will give us your name, your cell phone number, and the name of your cell carrier, we will notify you via text message of any change in service times. You can write these on your attendance cards or send us an email or text Mike.

2) We will send out an email to all members.

3) We will post the notice on the home page of our website: www.fallschurchcoc.org or twitter page twitter.com/cocfc

4) We will post a notice on the church’s phone system [see note above]. If you ever dial the church’s phone number, and it rings but there is no answer or message, it means there is no electrical power to the building.

5) If all these fail, call your Agape group leader, one of the Elders, or Mike Tune.
