We are all doing our best to help our community stay safe. As painful as it was and is, the closure of the shuls and schools was a necessary step to help slow down the spread of the Covid-19 virus.
It is remarkable how unified the community has been during this crisis. From the joint day of Tehillim to this week’s Haggada Highlights shiur, we have come together.
We are grateful to all of the leaders of our community. The lay leadership of each of the schools and shuls, the teachers and administrators of our schools, the leaders of the many chessed committees, the medical professionals, and each member of our community has given of themselves to help wherever needed.
There is no cure for this deadly pandemic disease, but we understand how it spreads and therefore how to stop its spread. Therefore, each and every individual in our community, as difficult as it is, must redouble and enhance their meticulous observance of social distancing. At this point, the only thing we can do is to stem the devastation of this pandemic.
We have each expended immense psychological, emotional, spiritual and even physical effort to keep our community as safe as humanly possible. Now is the time to redouble our efforts and adhere strictly to the community guidelines and recommendations that have been promulgated under the guidance of the Rabbonim of the entire community.
Changes were made to the way the local restaurants operate due to the realities of this situation. We thank each of the restaurants for their cooperation in making sure they conduct themselves with our health and safety in mind.
The next two weeks will be very busy at our local Kosher Supermarket, Glatt 27
