Important message from
Rabbi Skoff & Stuart Deicher
Dear Friends,
“The preservation of health is a mitzvah which overrides all other mitzvot.”
Thus speaks the Jewish faith. Our tradition lists many examples of overriding sabbath laws and other practices in order to preserve life and health. Saving one life is as if we are saving an entire world, says our very wise religion. Truth is, we are in the midst of a health dilemma and, without further individual testing, we do not know who is carrying the virus, since some cases carry moderate symptoms. Acting wisely and cautiously today will preserve health and even save lives, and on that basis, we have elected to cancel our in-person weekly religious gatherings, Shabbat and weekday, and go to an online set-up for Services.
Anyone who is in need of a community at this time, or feels alone or unconnected, there is a place for you at Park.
If you are interested in any of our virtual programs, services, or are just looking for a way to connect, please contact
Allison Solomon at asolomon@parksyn.org or 216-371-2244, ext. 121.
