What is the reasoning behind adding digital membership and online visitor statuses?
- The objectives are to give an additional way into membership for those former members or those seeking more ongoing connection with us who are too far away (120 miles) to access services and programs.
Do we expect online visitors to transition to full membership?
- We would like all prospective members to transition to either full local or digital member status.
Are we anticipating online participation once we resume in-person offerings?
- Yes, some offerings will remain wholly on-line. Other online access when we are in person will vary.
What is the relation of these new ways of connecting (new membership categories) to our annual High Holy Day services and contributions?
- Self-assessed donations to join us for the High Holy Days will remain in place for all participants just as in the past.
