Thank God, our Young Israel Minyan is back to a full schedule and has completed its second successful full week!
Please read carefully the guidelines (here) we have put together to make these outdoor minyanim possible. Please note: Registration is required.
Let's make sure that even as the novelty wears off we continue to preserve the excitement and gratitude for our renewed opportunity for communal prayer!
We are, God willing, resuming Friday night services and Shabbat afternoon Mincha & Maariv this weekend! We continue to have, of course, minyan for Mincha & Maariv and Shacharit Sunday through Friday and Shabbat Morning.
