Genesis has implemented strict safety and sanitation protocols, adhering to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and Massachusetts state guidelines. Ensuring the safety of our guests and employees is of the utmost importance. Please take a few minutes to read through our protocols and don't hesitate to give us a call if you have questions.
Guests coming to events at Genesis will be required to wear a mask. Those who come in groups may choose not to wear masks when they are in their own groups. However, they must wear masks in the common areas and when entering the dining room. Of course, masks may be removed while dining.
Guests should not come to Genesis if they are exhibiting COVID symptoms* until they have a negative test result. Guests that develop symptoms after arrival may be requested to leave Genesis.
In limited situations, a rapid test may be available on premises to assess COVID status.
Genesis does not require proof of vaccination at this time.
Caring For Each Other
Genesis continues to follow strict safety and sanitizing protocols. Sensors in Genesis Dining Rooms, Chapel, and meeting rooms in the Carriage House, continuously monitor carbon dioxide levels, so fresh air is automatically filtered and circulated into the rooms. This reduces the possibility of transmission of airborne illnesses in Genesis’ largest gathering spaces.
We welcome any questions you may have regarding our COVID-19 guidelines. Please call 413-562-3627 or email genesis@genesisspiritualcenter.org.

A while ago, Genesis received the gift of a canvas labyrinth along with a number of boxes of accessories, some easels and posters. Due to its size, the labyrinth will only fit in the Providence Room and time passed as we waited for the room to be available so we could unfold the labyrinth and walk it. In the meanwhile, Nick and Wayne stored the labyrinth, boxes and posters upstairs in a Carriage House closet. Weeks passed, then months. Years.

Microgreens, Mulberries and ‘Maters, Oh My!
These past weeks I’ve had occasion to cover Genesis’ kitchen so our beloved Chef Jen could have a couple of days off. I delighted in harvesting tart cherries from the tree behind the Carriage House and incorporating them into Rainbow Chard, bacon and cherry pizzas, Chilled Persian Soup, and cooking them down for a sauce over vanilla ice cream.
