All Friday evening Kabbalat Shabbat and Saturday morning Shabbat services will now be held both in person at AJ and on Zoom. Shabbat Minhah/Ma'ariv and Havdalah as well as daily minyan will remain on Zoom.
Because cases of COVID-19, delta variant, are increasing in Montgomery County, we are updating our requirements to say that all people entering the AJ building MUST be vaccinated and wear masks. This update is reflected below.
- Pre-register for services by completing the online registration form or calling the office. (Please note: This link is for registrations in October. Last month's registration link will not work.)
- Use hand sanitizer before entering the sanctuary. Hand sanitizer will be available throughout the building.
- Only fully vaccinated people may attend in-person services and events at AJ and everyone must wear a mask.
Additionally, there will be no limit to the number of people who may attend in-person services. You can see the service schedule and Zoom links here.
If you would like to attend Friday evening and/or Saturday morning services, you must pre-register by 2:30 PM Friday afternoon.

A Synagogue Like Ours Shouldn’t Be So Unusual.
But It Is.
It doesn’t happen at every synagogue. But Adath Jeshurun is more than a synagogue;
and it’s been that way for many generations.
