Rabbi Adler Communications during Coronavirus pandemic

Chaveireinu HaYikarim,
​​​​​​​
I hope you and your family are well.  As state governments have relaxed their regulations and allow people to begin to work and public forums to operate, it is only natural that people will ask when our shul will open. There will be an RCBC meeting tomorrow night, after Shabbat, to formulate community wide practices. We have taken the position to follow the OU’s recommendation not to open until two weeks have lapsed since the government’s allowing up to 50 people to gather together outdoors and a 10 person limit on indoor gatherings. We will maintain the status quo through Shavuot and take note of the situation at our local hospitals. Please practice sound safety measures by being committed to social distancing and wearing a mask when you are outdoors. There will be an RCBC letter before Shavuot laying out the ground rules for reopening.

Best wishes for a meaningful Shabbat

Yosef Adler
