RABBI'S NOTES

  • Social Distancing guidelines are still enforced at all minyanim. Please self check symptoms at home. Masks must be worn at all times on premises. If you do not feel well, or are awaiting test results - stay home.
  • Community Leining: We will discharge the 'Tzibbur's' obligation to hear the Parshios that were missed in the Spring by distributing the leining throughout the final days of Shemini Atzeres & Simchas Torah. 
  • Aravos: Have been generously donated this year. Contributions are still welcome - please deposit them in the drop boxes in the Bet Medrash lobby or Office Door, or make an online payment at www.OZNY.org/Payment.php. 
  • Hoshanos: 7 Circuits will be conducted around the Bima in each minyan. They will be limited to 5 (Beis Medrash) to 18 (Main Shul) men depending on the location of the minyan. Those comfortable participating should take turns at each circuit. Only 1 Torah will be taken out. 
  • Hakafos: Like Hoshanos, Hakafos will be limited to the number of participants. We will sing one song, and have 1 Short Dvar Torah at each Hakafa from members of the community.
  • Kol Nearim: Parents are asked to keep their children with them at their side
  • Simchas Torah Aliyos: Both the Hashkama and the Main Minyanim will conduct only 5 Aliyas, plus the Chasan Maftir, Chasan Torah, and Chasan Bereishis. The Main Shul will host Aliyas as well for the additional missed Parshios to be read throughout Yom Tov.
