Temple Talk

Thank you for your ongoing patience as we respond to an ever-changing Covid landscape. We are thrilled so many of you have been able to join our remote programming in January, though we miss being with you! We remain in contact with our health-care professionals, and we consider staffing, facility, and programmatic needs as we make these decisions.

We return in-person for the month of February (though if the Covid-19 situation changes again, please watch for further information). This applies to programs that had previously been in-person (see below). We remind you of the following temple policies regarding in-person programming:

• A properly fitted mask is required while on temple property. We strongly recommend a N95, KN95, or KF94 mask.
• Everyone entering the building must be fully vaccinated (including boosters for those who are eligible). Medical exemptions must be pre-approved by the Executive Director, Terrie Goren, in advance of services and programs.
• If serving food has been pre-approved, it must be served by one or a limited number of people following hygienic food handling practices or individually wrapped. Eating and drinking may only take place while seated and appropriately distanced.
• B’nei Mitzvah policies can be read here.

The following programs will take place in-person (for a complete list of programming, please refer to the eNews or calendar on our website:
