# Some authorities hold that if some people in the Shul wear Tefillin and others don’t there’s a violation of Lo Titgodidu (don’t cause factions in observance of Torah) and so they advise that one should either find a shul that has your minhag or pray in different locations in the same shul. <Ref> Kitzur S"A 10:25 writes that there is an issue of Lo titgodedu for some people in the shul to wear Tefillin on [[chol hamoed]] and others not to wear Tefillin. Hilchot [[Chol HaMoed]] Zichron Shlomo (in the hebrew section pg 39-40) has a letter from Rav Moshe Feinstein, dated Kislev 5737, stating clearly that one should follow the minhag of the Shul and if the minhag is to wear Tefillin one should also.

However, Rav Moshe adds that preferably someone who is praying in a shul that wears Tefillin should also wear Tefillin. Sh”t Teshuvot VeHanhagot 2:332 holds that there’s no real issue of [[Lo Titgodedu]] but preferably one should be concerned for those who hold that it’s an issue.
