September 29, 2020

October is Pastor Appreciation Month and BC Christian Academy would not want to miss the opportunity to honor and recognize our pastors & ministry workers who play a huge role in our faith community. In light of COVID-19, our annual Pastor Appreciation Day will be organized with social distancing on Wednesday, October 14th from 10 am to 12 pm at our Fernwood Campus Gym at 1019 Fernwood Ave., Port Coquitlam.

Following the BC Mass Gathering Order due to COVID-19, attendance is limited to 50 people.

Hebrews 13:7 inspires us to “Remember your leaders, who spoke the word of God to you.” BC Christian Academy affirms the importance of home, family, and church working together to lay the Christian foundation among our young generation.

If your family is currently attending a church, please forward this invitation to your pastor/s. We have also sent an e-mail invitation to most churches/pastors in our school directory.

For the guidance of everyone attending, here are our COVID-19 On-Campus Safe Meeting Protocols

1. If you are showing any symptoms of illness, if you have traveled within the last two weeks or if you have been potentially exposed to someone who has had Covid-19 within the last two weeks, please do not come to campus to attend the meeting.
2. Please sanitize or wash your hands before entering the GYM. Hand sanitizer will be available and frequent sanitizing is encouraged.
3. Masks must be worn as you enter our campus and they are available if you don’t have one.
4. Please maintain two-meter (six feet) distance from others at all times.
5. You need to register to attend this event.
6. We are limiting access to, and use of, the school’s common spaces other than the gym.
7. Please observe one-way directional signs and wall and floor signage to encourage healthy distancing.
