Current COVID-19 Guidelines
|
|
As Governor Hochul and the New York State Department of Health issued new COVID requirements for indoor establishments, including houses of worship and, in accordance with our understanding of the current mandates, we have determined that effective immediately, face masks will again be required within the shul building for anyone over 2 years of age who is medically able to tolerate wearing a mask. This applies at all times in the building, except while eating or drinking. Members are responsible to notify their guests of these requirements.
We are asking for full compliance in the spirit of community and Achdut. Our shul is full and vibrant again, and we have chosen the policy that helps keep us safe, while remaining open and welcoming to men, women, and children of all ages.
