relevant c.L.E.A.N.

Purpose: To ensure all spaces across Relevant Church’s campus remain clean, organized, and ready to use daily. Our C.L.E.A.N. standard provides clear and consistent communication for all departments and areas- regardless of who is using it.

Relevant C.L.E.A.N. applies to all staff, volunteers, teams, ministries, and anyone who uses any area on campus.

Non-negotiable standard: Relevant C.L.E.A.N. is not optional. This is the best way to honor one another and steward the space God has entrusted to us. Relevant C.L.E.A.N. creates a consistent standard for all of those who utilize this space.

Relevant C.L.E.A.N.

Consistent: “Does this match the standard of this space?”

  • Each space has a specific way it is set up and maintained; reset according to its layout, photos, checklist, and configuration

  • Do not create new or personal systems

  • Return furniture, equipment, and supplies to their designated areas

  • Complete C.L.E.A.N. process every time, not just when it’s messy

  • Treat consistency as a form of care

Left better than you found it: “How did I leave this space better for others?”

  • Address visible messes, clutter, or disorganization

  • Improve area when possible (straighten, wipe, restock)

  • Never leave a space worse than you found it

Everything in its home: “Is every item back in its designated area?”

  • Complete the work 100%

  • Return all items back to their designated areas

  • Do not leave items on counters, tables, carts, booths, stages, or floors

All areas checked: “Did I do a thorough scan of the whole area?”

  • Walk the entire area and address any issues

  • Dispose of any trash, clear sinks, and empty trash bins if full

  • Break down and flatten all boxes and discard into dumpster

Next team ready: “Can the next team walk in and use this space immediately?”

  • Leave space completely ready for the next team

  • Next team should not have to clean, organize, or reset before using

  • Being “next team ready” honors them and their time
