Security
The safety and security of our congregants, guests, clergy, staff, and visitors remains our highest priority.
Throughout the High Holy Days, Temple Sinai will have a visible security presence, including law enforcement and private security personnel. Security officers will continually monitor our campus, gathering areas, and worship spaces to help ensure a safe and welcoming environment for everyone.
For the safety of our community, all bags will be inspected upon entry. We also ask that you remain vigilant and immediately report any suspicious packages, individuals, or activity to a security officer, member of the clergy, or Temple staff.
Thank you for your cooperation and partnership in helping us maintain a safe and secure environment for our entire Temple Sinai community.
