CLOVIS, CALIF.,—March 17, 2020, The Central California Conference of Seventh-day Adventists (CCC), through its Officers Council, is directing and requiring that:

(1) All CCC churches (including companies and church plants) cease all gatherings for church-related events at church locations during March 19– April 12, 2020; and

(2) All CCC K-12 schools cease all gatherings for school-related events at school locations during March 19 - April 12, 2020. There will be no on-campus instruction. However, academic instruction will still continue during this time (with the exception of the regular spring vacation) via schoolwork assignments that will be given in advance via hardcopy learning packets and/or electronic delivery.

As for our preschools, they will each follow the directions of the state, and of our county, Conference Education Department.

As we face the challenges of the global Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the above actions have been made with much consideration for the health and safety of our members, students and families, and the people of the communities in which we live and serve. We will continue to monitor the status and information from the various agencies.

We will keep you posted as to further developments. Information as to CCC online worship services and online giving will be made available.

Thank you for your prayers and support as we move closer to the soon return of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
