How We Are Handling COVID19

Thank you for your patience as we all work together to navigate the current Coronavirus pandemic and the changes it brings to our lives. This page will be regularly updated as we get more information!

View the NEW letter from the community's Rabbis, with updates on partial re-opening.

This is a joint message from the Rabbis. However, the re-opening process and timeline of each Shul may not look the same.

We at Dor Tikvah are working on an appropriate plan for restarting services in a staged format. As we come to develop appropriate protocols for these limited services, we will be sure to pass the details on.

We will not be holding services over the upcoming holiday of Shavuot, although there will be programming provided before (Virtual Torah Slam & Community-Wide Taste of Torah), after (Zoom Yizkor Service), and during (materials for all night learning) the holiday that will keep us all in the spirit of the Chag.

Services

> Though we will not be meeting at the Shul for prayer, it is preferable to partake in prayer services as a community, even apart. Therefore, times will remain listed on the calendar and in the newsletters.

>In lieu of Minyans at the synagogue, Rabbi Davies will be sending learning material through the Minyan What's App Group for a dose of Torah (and a reminder to pray).

> Fridays at 5:30pm, Rabbi Davies hosts Virtual Pre-Shabbat Ruach through Zoom. Password: 085081

> Saturdays at 8:30pm, Rabbi Davies hosts Virtual Havdallah and Schmooze through Zoom. Password: 085081

Classes

> Daf Yomi will take place over phone conference. Contact Rabbi Elisha Paul elisha.paul@addlestone.org for more information.

> Torah Study on Sundays is available through Zoom.

> Lunchtime Talmud on Thursdays is available through Facebook Live and Zoom.

> Monday and Thursday classes with Kenny Abitbol are avaialbe through Facebook Live and Zoom. Thursday class to be rescheduled.

Shavuot 5780 Torah Slam: Virtually Speaking
Wednesday, May 27th 7:00p to 8:00p
In the likely event that we are not able to come together physically to celebrate the holiday of Shavuot this year, of course we needed another way to have our annual Torah Slam. Presenting Torah Slam: Virtually Speaking - You still sign up for a portion from the Book of Exodus with Rabbi@DorTikvah.org, and then you will video your presentation and send it to the rabbi by Friday, May 22nd so that we can send out each of the presentations before Shavuot. 5 minutes, however you want (within Halachic parameters), work on your own or make this a family project/virtual collaboration - looking forward to some great presentations. More details on other Shavuot programming coming soon.
