Attention! Special operation of CIL and CIP en septiembre
September is a month that brings together important closings for Judaism. Following the Jewish tradition, the Israeli communities of Lisbon and Porto have changed their operation to this month to respect their celebration days.
So, during the next month Comunidad Israelí de Lisboa (CIL) will remain closed for the following closings: 6, 7, 8, 15, 16, 20, 21, 22, 27, 28 and 29. The Israeli Community of Porto (CIP) will remain closed on the 6th, 7th, 15th, 16th and 20th of September. It is worth remembering that this last entity held collective vacations on the 15th and 15th will not resume its activities until the 27th of August.
The exceptional functioning of the Communities throughout September means an unusual flow of presentation and process analysis. Aware of this, all of our sectors have been working to ensure that the impact of this extraordinary performance on our customers is as little as possible.
We emphasize that Martins Castro will operate with normality throughout the month of September, and that all the processes will continue, delaying the second stage in which they meet with the due celerity that entails the circumstances.
