  Parshas Bamidbar

שמחתי באמרים לי בית ה׳ נלך
We have all longed to return to Shul, our בית מקדש מעט. Our Shuls have always been the place where we connect with the רבש"ע through תורה ותפילה. To have the zechus of davening with a minyan is a great simcha. 

Minyanim are available for sign up up until Shavuos.
Please read through the guidelines carefully (in the re-opening letter) and sign up here:  https://calendly.com/koyc​​​​​​​ 
We are trying our best but as with everything new there are going to be challenges in everything running smoothly. Thank you for your understanding.

Please review the following guidelines before coming to Shul.
Due to state regulations:
·   Each minyan may only have 10 men. Therefore, attendance will be limited to Men and boys over Bar Mitzvah.
·      If you are over 60 you will need to have been cleared by a physician before joining any minyan.
·      There will be a compliance gabbai appointed for each minyan to ensure all guidelines are being followed. You must follow any instructions the gabbai gives.
·      You may only attend the minyan you are registered for and it needs to be a serious commitment that you will attend every day and come on time and stay until the end. If you can’t make it to one of your confirmed minyanim, it is your responsibility to find someone to replace you.
·      Everyone will have a seat with at least 6-foot social distancing.
·      Please make sure to bring a Mask, as they must always be worn whenever you are in Shul and when entering or leaving the Shul.
·      Please bring your own siddur and chumash (on Shabbos they will be provided by the Shul). Please do not use any of the seforim in the Shul.
·      The men’s room should only be used for emergencies.
·      There should be no congregating in the Shul, hallway or outside the Shul.
·      At this time, there will not be any food or drinks in the Shul building.
·      Please sanitize your hands upon entering and leaving the Shul.
·      After each minyan the surfaces will be disinfected.

Do not come to Shul if:
·      You feel ill or have any Covid-19 symptoms.
·      You had or think you may have had Covid-19, or have come in contact with someone who had Covid-19, you need to be cleared by a physician to attend the minyan.
·      If you have any pre-existing conditions that may cause complications with Covid-19 needs to be cleared by your physician to attend the minyan.
May our tefillos be answered that this pandemic end speedily.
