Inclement Weather Policy

2024-2025

Our snow contractor is ready! Are you?

In the event of inclement weather, UBC leadership will make decisions about office closure, activities, and Sunday Services (including Sunday School, Worship, and Meetings) by 7 am on the affected morning but probably the night before for extra safety.

Someone will call our Regular Attenders if there are cancellations. Our Missions Center partners are responsible for their own group activities cancellations.

Any decisions will also be listed on our Website Home Page, www.theunitedbaptchurch.org and on
Facebook. Please use common sense precautions for your own well-being and safety. Thank you!

All United Baptist Church Activities and Services for Sunday, January 19th have been cancelled due to the expected snow accumulation and extreme cold conditions. Please stay safe and warm inside to let snow removal and treatment be done safely and efficiently. Thank you! Praying for those workers as we pray for one another in our extended church family. If you are a Mission Center member, please check with your leadership for cancellations.

We wish you a Happy New Year!
