New normal of church services


CHURCHgoers welcomed the chance to attend services again on Sunday after a long lapse of more than three months. The church where I worship, St Mark’s Church Seremban, had undergone a transformation to accommodate the Health Ministry’s SOPs.

The pews and seats were re-arranged for distancing and the number of people allowed inside was restricted. Only one main door was open to make sure everyone had their contact details and temperature taken. Hands were sanitised and everyone had face masks on throughout the service.
