Today we davened in front of my porch again. It was the first Shacharis minyan during the week since Shabbos or Yomtov. We will be davening again tomorrow at 8:30 with Hodu at 8:45. Minyan is where the path on Lyncrest Drive used to be to enter Ohr Chaim. The town made me close it up so they can monitor who enters the Shul. There is plenty of room to stand with proper social distancing as the minyan stretches from Lodi Lane till Jay Court. We daven Mincha and Maariv daily at 7:30 and 8:45pm.
Syag, this is no longer a question of Al Tiftach Peh. PC is gone, people need to speak up. Enough people died, Nebuch during the past 2 months because of this, that people should realize that masks are not an option while davening inside of a Shul. Outside where there is open space and enough separation, masks are not a necessity. However if it gets out of control, I will demand masks outside as well. There is enough speculation as to whether the antibodies even help or if there is such a thing as herd immunity that would require everyone inside a Shul to wear a mask. It is exactly because of A Yid’s comment that my neighbors are hoping that we continue this minyan well into the summer.
