Masks with filters are not acceptable. During kiddushim, masks must be worn unless you are eating. We will continue to have a separate dessert table for children. Children are not permitted to serve themselves from the food table. For more information from the Stamford Dept of Health, click here. Parents: Please be mindful not to serve children food or drinks in the Sanctuary during davening and to ensure they do not enter the shul unsupervised following davening. Thank you in advance. Shabbat Kiddushim Note  We have given our staff the day off so they can be with their families. Members of the board have volunteered to help setup kiddushim. Please do your part by throwing away any garbage. Thank you in advance. Youth Group Note  There will be no groups this shabbat due to winter vacation. The Little Lights room (room 113 on the first floor of the new addition) will be open for free play.
