We thank you all for your participation, for your understanding, and your patience, and we look forward to celebrating our 50th Year milestone – and all future milestones – in happiness and good health!

With the current situation, we need to try as hard as we can to strengthen ourselves in our Tefilos. During Shacharis and prior to Mincha, we should say פטום הקטורת(pg. 16 in the Hebrew only Artscroll siddur and pg. 36 in the English siddur) the two paragraphs from תנו רבנןuntil מפני הכבוד. Tehillim should be said following all three tefillos, specifically chapters קל and קמב (130 & 142).
Because we know how important Tefilah is, at this time, we would like to start an initiative with the women of the Shul to say all of sefer Tehillim every day. https://tehillim-online.com/lectureContinue?code=c536560f8cb390a20fe4428387424f9f
It is crucially important that we all follow the directives and advice of the medical professionals and the Psakim of the Rabbomim that all Social Distancing be held to completely. This is true Sakanas Nefashos. Everyone is reminded that the Rabbomin have explicitly forbade all private minyanim.
