The government has given the green light for places of worship to resume with their services under level 3 of the lockdown.

New regulations are yet to be published at the time of writing this article, but President Cyril Ramaphosa made a special address to focus on the religious and spiritual needs of the country. 

Churches, synagogues, mosques, and temples will be limited to 50 people at a time.

Just like the new norm, sanitisation will be required before and after services.
