How WHC is Protecting You From COVID-19

Protecting the health and safety of the community is not just required of us; it is woven into our Jewish values.

At every step of the recovery phase, we continue to prioritize community health and safety under the guidance of the medical experts on our COVID-19 Task Force. Our decisions reflect lessons we have learned from two years of robust virtual activity, the feedback we have received from so many of you, and our commitment to ensuring that all of you will have access to the comfort, inspiration, and community of your Temple.

All protocols and procedures are subject to change pursuant to local conditions, government regulations, and the medical judgment of our COVID-19 Task Force.

Updates

6/22: Considering recently updated CDC and local guidance, the following are updated:

• You no longer need to show proof of vaccination.
• Masks are still optional, though we encourage them for those who are unvaccinated to minimize the risk to themselves and others. If you arrive without a mask but want one, we’ll have them available at the door.
  • A reminder: wearing a mask does not mean someone is unvaccinated. They may be planning to travel, work with immunocompromised people, or may simply feel more comfortable wearing a mask in public spaces so please be respectful of everyone’s choice.  
• We have plenty of well-ventilated space indoors to celebrate, pray, or learn in a socially distanced way.
• We will continue to offer a livestream option for Friday night and Saturday morning services.
• We will continue to offer a livestream or Zoom option for other programs whenever feasible.

If you have any questions about our protocols, please contact Executive Director Lindsay Feldman. We know this is a concerning time for many and our clergy team is here for you if you’d like to talk.
