Denver, Colorado … Every day we are seeing communities take unprecedented measures to reduce the risk of spreading COVID-19. The Rocky Mountain Conference along with Adventist Risk Management, Inc. is committed to providing resources to help mitigate the impact of this coronavirus pandemic.

Attached you will find guidance for churches and schools on how to be proactive in planning for the possibility of disruption in everyday life. We have provided our schools with a template they can use to communicate with parents about measures the school is taking to minimize the risk of transmission.

Adventist Risk Management has also created a video to be shared with our churches and schools that promotes everyday hygiene habits that will help reduce the spread of germs. The video has been translated into 3 different languages:

English https://youtu.be/HXV74zb0Vcg

Spanish https://youtu.be/ELaj89qw-Ck

Portuguese https://youtu.be/wYqHu18HSkY

Please note that all of these resources and more can be found on the Adventist Risk Management website at https://adventistrisk.org/covid19.


Orlando, Florida … AdventHealth has launched a coronavirus information site for the Adventist Church with videos covering topics like prevention, symptoms, spread and some special considerations for congregations.

You can find the first few episodes of the video podcast series at AdventHealth.com/Coronavirus-Resource-Hub/Church-Resources, in addition to FAQs, blogs and CDC resources. Future episodes will be posted as we learn more about the virus and we have additional updates. We will also set up a coronavirus information site for schools in the near future.
