PJC COVID Protocols
Masking
Masking is optional at all events. People at increased risk for complications or who are otherwise concerned are welcome to wear a mask, including an N95 mask, while at the PJC.
Vaccination Policy
All people over the age of five who are eligible to be fully vaccinated must be vaccinated to enter our synagogue. In addition, all Learning Center students must be vaccinated regardless of age in order to attend the Learning Center.
Please note that beginning on February 1, 2022, “fully vaccinated” is defined as completing an initial vaccine course (1 dose of the Janssen/Johnson and Johnson vaccine or 2 doses of the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine) PLUS a booster once 6 months have passed since completion of the initial vaccine course.
Physical Distancing
Our sanctuary generally allows space for those who wish to maintain physical distancing. When feasible, doors and windows will also be opened, to provide greater air ventilation. As we move into the warmer months, should the need arise we will once again offer an outdoor, tented area adjacent to the sanctuary.
Kiddush
We continue to enjoy a light kiddush following services on Saturday morning. During kiddush, those who are comfortable are encouraged to stay and eat. Though our library space is fairly small, those who wish to have more space are welcome to eat either in the sanctuary or outside on the lawn.
Testing
While the Board is not mandating a policy of testing for COVID-19 at this time, all potential visitors should avoid coming to the building for any reason while sick with an acute respiratory illness. It is imperative that people with active symptoms avoid coming to the PJC, to decrease our shared risk.
