Congregation Beth Israel is observing the shelter in place order by closing the building. Rabbi Bruce Greenbaum is checking his emails and making phone calls. Julie Chase and Abby King are monitoring emails and checking for phone messages. As much as possible things are being taken care of.
Virtual Shabbat Services are being led by Rabbi Bruce Greenbaum and Cantor Alisa Fineman using Zoom. The link is in the weekly eblast or call and leave a message for an email link. Saturday Torah Studdy is led by Rabbi Bruce Greenbaum also on Zoom. Everyone is welcome to join in.
Congregation Beth Israel has an active caring community. If you are in need to help, please contact the office and someone will get in touch with you to see how we can help.
As we shelter in place, stay safe and wash your hands. Until we can be phisically together again we pray for the world to heal and that our community will know that we are here for you, now and in the future.
Postponed to a future date after the shelter in place has been lifted. Keep checking the website for updates.
