Do to the COVID-19 virus, our shul remains temporarily closed. We are looking at IY”H opening sometime in mid June once we can establish the proper protocols and guidelines. Stay tuned for updates……
In the mean time the mitzvah to protect ourselves is paramount to any of the other mitzvos including tefilla b’tzibur.

¨From the Rabbi’s Study¨

This year celebration of Shavous takes on a whole new meaning. Most of us are used to late night communal learning, milchig Kiddush in shul, Megillat Ruth and Yizkor with our fellow Congregants. We unfortunately will have to celebrate and commemorate in relative isolation. Even those synagogues and Kollelim open are also very limited in attendance, restricted communal singing, social distancing and limited Torah reading. We however also have an opportunity to make this year an even more meaningful Shavous. With all the down time we may focus on elongated prayer, deeper concentration on the the Book of Ruth, and quality time learning Torah. Shavous changed the dynamic of the Bnei Yisroel’s relationship with Hashem. Let us take this task and make it our own.

Good Yom Tov and Shabbos
Rabbi A. M. Abramson

REFUAH SH’LAIMAH:
To all those who are not well as well as those worldwide with this virus. We mention their names at each Torah reading and think about them in our private tefillos. Let Hashem hear our tefillos on their behalves, and all have a speedy recovery. If there is a choleh that needs a misheberach, please email their name to anshemotele@sbcglobal.net .
Since we are not at shul with Torah readings, in your private shmone esrai, you can include in the “Refaeinu” paragraph a special tefilla for the cholim that you have in mind.
