By registering you agree to the following rules and guidelines. 

  • Members and regulars only. These meetings are open to Kehillah members and regulars only. All outsiders, even if they are guests of our members, will not be allowed entry. We hope for a day where we can reinstate our famous Kehillat Shaar HaShamayim hospitality, and this is a necessary first step to reaching that goal.
  • Children and high risk individuals. In this initial phase, we cannot accommodate any children under the age of Bar/Bat Mitzvah. Those over the age of 65 or in a high-risk group should consult with their trusted medical professional before attending.
  • Registration. All who wish to attend Friday and/or Shabbat meetings, must register in advance via our online form. Those who do not register will be unable to attend meetings upon arrival.

  • Shared items. No Siddurim or other shared articles will be provided. Registered members must make sure to bring their own.
  • Restrooms. There will be no bathroom access for the time being. We are looking into options for a portable toilet, but have not secured one yet. Please work with the assumption that there will not be one. If anyone wishes to sponsor a portable toilet, please contact us by replying to this email.
    UPDATE (6/11): We have secured a portable toilet and sink! If you would like to contribute towards this expense, kindly click here to visit our donation page.
  • Water bottles. We are working on securing water bottles to be distributed among meeting participants. If you would like to purchase and deliver a few cases of water bottles, please respond to this email to let us know.
  • Please do your part! Unlike other communities, no individual will be tasked with policing these guidelines. By registering to attend, you agree to adhere to all the rules mentioned above without exception. I will not hesitate to shut down these meetings if we are unable to act responsibly and adhere to these guidelines. We must each do our part, so that we can continue expanding our re-opening plan.
