As the state of Massachusetts, and the country at large, begins to re-open, we exercise caution in “returning to normal.” For many of us, it feels as though the world we left prior to the start of the COVID-19 pandemic is gone, and we have yet another “new normal” to navigate. We remain conscious of the collective trauma we experienced during the heights of the pandemic, of the challenges that arise in light of re-opening, and of the fact that many members of our communities (particularly those who are disabled and immuno-compromised) have differing levels of comfort around changing guidelines. Currently, in accordance with Massachusetts state guidelines, our outdoor events are masks-optional for those who are vaccinated, with masks required for those who are un-vaccinated. We will continue to provide updates as changes are made.

We are guided by Jewish precepts including: “To save a life is to save the world.” Please visit our calendar and Facebook page for updates, religious services, youth and adult events, learning and committee meetings, as well as support, humor and suggestions to grow Jewishly.
