The JNAC report is now available on the main Ryerson United Church home page. Please find it under the Welcome message.
It had been many years since Ryerson had cancelled a church service due to weather...until the winter of 2008 when we cancelled services twice!
We hope that this winter will be kinder to us, but felt that it would be helpful to have a protocol for cancellation to keep confusion to a minimum and safety of our Ryerson family, top priority. Therefore, the Worship Committee presents…
RYERSON’S INCLEMENT WEATHER CANCELLATION PROTOCOL
*Cancellation will decided upon by the Minister, Worship Chair and Clerk of Session either the evening before or as early as possible on Sunday morning .
*Staff and those participating in the service will be called immediately upon the decision to cancel.
*A message will be put on the church phone indicating cancellation so that those wondering, may call into the church to listen to the message. (Janice is able to do this from her home.)
*We will attempt to put messages on CKOC, K-LITE FM, and CHML.
*An e-mail indicating cancellation will be sent to those with e-mail.
*Those without e-mail should call the church number to see if the service is cancelled.
Again...we hope we don’t have to use these measures, but if we do, we’re ready.
If you have any questions or concerns about this cancellation protocol, please contact Ellen Francis, David Dawson or Rev. Margaret .
