Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson released the Arkansas Department of Health Guidelines on church services starting today.
The Governor continues to encourage an online platform for those who do not wish to venture back into a public setting. Churches that will be holding on-site worship services, should have signs upon entry encouraging people who do not feel well to not attend, and to stress social distancing measures.
There should be 6 foot social distancing other than immediate family members. Face coverings should be worn for those over 10 years of age. This does not include worship leaders or praise team singers. However there should be 12 feet distancing between the worship leaders and the congregation.
The Governor also said venues such as Movie Theatres, Auditoriums, Museums and the like can open on May 18th, with similar stipulations.
Arkansas are able today to begin going to gyms and fitness centers with restrictions, and the same will be true on Wednesday for Hair Salons, Barbershops, tatoo, and Massage Parlors.
Next Monday May 11th Arkansas Restaurants can again have in-dining customers at a 33% capacity level to begin with and that would rise to 67% capacity level by later in the month.
