COVID-19 Update
Shaarei Shomayim continues to be open for services. We have strict health and safety protocols in place to protect all those in the building. For services, attendees are required to wear masks, and bring your own siddur/tallit. There is an ongoing need for physical distancing.
Services are currently for members or clergy of Shaarei Shomayim, provided that they pre-register and commit to compliance with our health and safety guidelines. We wish to emphasize to those with any health concerns that there is no obligation to attend shul at this time. Current shul programs on Zoom continue.
