Be sure to arrive on time.  The JCC doors will be locked when services begin, and people who have not pre-registered will not be admitted.

In order to create a comfortable and safe environment, seating will be positioned to allow for adequate distancing.  We ask in-person attendees to follow these COVID guidelines:

    • Vaccination is required
    • Masks are optional
    • Self-test within 24 hours prior to the service. A test prior to an evening service will suffice for the following day’s services
    • Attend in-person only after testing negative
    • If you are not feeling well, regardless of COVID test results, please join via Zoom

Zoom links for Yom Kippur services are now available.
