More religious activities will be allowed to gradually resume at places of worship from Friday (June 19) as Singapore emerges from the circuit breaker.

These have to be carried out with the necessary precautions in place to reduce physical interactions.

Congregational and other worship services, starting with up to 50 people at a time, excluding religious and supporting workers, may resume from June 26 to allow religious organisations to prepare safe management measures.

The Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth (MCCY) said in an advisory late on Thursday that the organisations are required to submit their safe management plans at least three days before commencing phase two activities.

The plans should include manpower deployment, ensuring that worshippers observe a 1m safe distance when worshipping individually or in groups of no more than five, and keeping worship services as short as possible.

Singing and other live performances will not be permitted during the service, and there should not be any sharing of prayer or other common items.
