Dear Friends of Providence Renewal Centre,

Once again, we are faced with the same challenges as every other business, faith community, and gathering place. In keeping with public health regulations, we have implemented new measures to ensure the safety of our guests and staff.

Starting September 20th, Providence Renewal Centre will be implementing the Restrictions Exemption Program according to AHS website.  Our guidelines are as follows:

Proof of vaccination is required

• o single dose accepted between September 20 and October 25 if received 2 weeks before time of service
• o double doses required after October 25
• documentation of a medical exemption
• proof of a privately paid negative PCR or rapid test within 72 hours of service (tests from AHS or Alberta Precision Laboratories not allowed)

 Proof of negative test

To enter spaces participating in the Restrictions Exemption Program, people aged 12 and older can show proof of a negative test result.

• Tests must be privately paid COVID-19 PCR or rapid tests completed within 72 hours.
• Tests must not be from Alberta Health Services or Alberta Precision Laboratories.

 Proof of vaccination

To enter spaces participating in the Restrictions Exemption Program, people ages 12 and older can provide proof of vaccination or documentation of a medical exemption.

• Sept. 20 to Oct. 25: proof of a single dose is considered acceptable as long as the dose was given more than 2 weeks before the time of service.
• After Oct. 25: proof of double vaccination is required.

 If you have any further questions, please call us at 780- 430-9491

Although these measures are somewhat restrictive, this is still a wonderful time to come to our Centre to hold your meeting in our comfortable conference rooms, to host a retreat in a facility that is “away from it all” but still in a major urban centre, or to take advantage of our quiet space to refresh yourself
