COVID-19 Information

Segulah is currently meeting for shabbat morning services on the second and fourth Shabbat of each month. Anyone attending Segulah’s in-person events must adhere to our public health protocols and our vaccination policy.

Please check the Google calendar for upcoming dates! We hope that this programming will allow our community to connect and more regular scheduling will make planning and attending easier on all.

Public Health Protocols for Segulah In-Person Events

As of August 15, 2024

This document describes health-related procedures that apply to in-person events organized by Minyan Segulah. Attendance and participation in Segulah events is contingent upon compliance with these health protocols.

  1. Vaccination policy: Segulah’s vaccination policy requires that all attendees of Segulah events, including Shabbat services and children’s programming, be immunized following age-appropriate CDC recommendations. For the purposes of COVID, this means that all Segulah attendees over the age of 6 months must be fully vaccinated and boosted against COVID to the maximum extent available to them. Attendees who are newly eligible for either vaccination or additional boosters must be vaccinated or boosted within 8 weeks of becoming eligible. If you have any questions or concerns about this policy or how it applies to you or your family, we encourage you to reach out to us at [email protected] for a conversation.
  2. Mask use is currently optional at all Segulah events, both indoors and outdoors.
  3. Prior to arriving:
    1. COVID Symptoms: If a participant has a fever above 100.3 degrees, feels even mildly sick, or has COVID symptoms, they should do a COVID test before attending.  If the test is negative and the symptoms are minor, they may attend.  If the test is positive, or if a participant has recently tested positive for COVID and is within 10 days since the start of those symptoms (or 10 days of the initial positive if it was before the start of symptoms), or if they are under quarantine from any institution or by recommendation of a health professional, that participant should not come.  If, after a positive test, a participant has a negative COVID test and their symptoms have resolved, then they can attend even if they are still within the 10 days.
    2. COVID Exposure: Fully vaccinated participants who have been in close contact with someone who has COVID within 10 days of a Segulah event may come to Segulah PROVIDED they are symptom-free and test negative for COVID on the day of the event.  Participants should mask at all indoor Segulah events during this period.
  4. Physical distancing: All participants should respect the distancing preferences of other participants.
  5. Eating and meals: Segulah events may involve food, such as kiddush lunches. In these situations, there will be tables and chairs available for eating outside, weather permitting, or takeout containers will be made available in the event of inclement weather.
