Daily and Shabbat Services
Considering the news from the CDC, our local officials, and our medical advisors, we are adjusting our COVID protocols. Effective immediately:
If you have been fully vaccinated and feel comfortable, you now have the option to remove your mask while at the synagogue.
If you have not been fully vaccinated, we ask that you continue to wear a mask while at the synagogue and encourage you to get vaccinated as soon as possible if eligible. We will continue to offer virtual programs and services.
We will adjust our social distancing in our sanctuaries, sitting every other row and suggesting a distance of 3-feet between congregants that are not in the same pod. Our sanctuaries are large enough for families to spread out further than the suggested 3-feet if they prefer.
Registration is no longer required for Main Sanctuary and Chapel services.
If you are experiencing any symptoms of illness, we ask that you stay home and return to the synagogue when you are free of symptoms.
Please note that these protocols apply only to the synagogue and not the Religious School or Day School, which will continue with their existing protocols. If you have a condition that weakens your immune system you may not be fully protected even if you have been vaccinated; therefore we suggest you consult with your physician before deciding to stop wearing a mask and social distancing when attending an indoor event.
