Protocol for Special Use of Church Facilities

From time to time a special need may arise for the use of the physical space of the Mountain Reformed Church facility. Only uses consistent with the mission of the church will be considered, (i.e. memorials, symposiums, educational events, etc.). The following guidelines will apply for each special event.

·      Approval for use must be requested and granted by the Church Council or President at least two weeks in advance of the event and recorded on the church calendar.

·      All normal church activities (Sunday services, bible study, choir practices, Women’s Fellowship, etc.), will have priority for the time and date for the use of the space.

·      The fee for each special event will be $200, payable directly to Mountain Reformed Church.  This fee will be waived for any event directly related to a church member.

·      Any and all honorariums paid for individuals supporting these events will be paid directly to the recipients.  This applies for events planned by both members and non-members.

·      If the event requires reception services all food preparation should be provided by a catering service or prepared in advance outside of the church facility. NO alcoholic beverages are allowed at any such event.

·      The person requesting the use of the facility is responsible for cleanup and removal of all food and beverage inventory after the event.
