Eruv is Pending for Shabbat October 22-23

Dear Friends and Congregants,

With more contagious COVID variants spreading exponentially through King County and nationwide, we need to temporarily reintroduce additional COVID safety measures:

• Masking in the Island Synagogue building is now required for all adults and children, vaccinated or unvaccinated. If your child cannot wear a mask consistently and correctly, please keep them and us safe by not bringing them to synagogue at this time. We make an exception for infants, who may remain with their parent during services provided that they remain socially distanced.
• Kiddushim have been suspended.
• Please be vigilant regarding socially distanced seating, even if you have been vaccinated. Note the blue tape marking off sections in the Sanctuary. We will be returning to assigned seating soon.
• Children not fully vaccinated should be under an adult's supervision at all times while in the building.

Thank you for your assistance,

Jon Newman

President, Island Synagogue
