Masks On! We are carefully monitoring the constantly-changing path of Covid-19 and consulting with our medical advisors. This Shabbat we will continue to wear our masks. We expect everyone present, regardless of vaccination status, to wear a mask that covers the nose and mouth while inside the building. Kiddushes will be held outdoors.

 

Friday Night Kiddush has been provided by the house.

 

Shabbat Morning Kiddush has been sponsored by Dina & Kenny "the Cohen" Canfield in gratitude for Kenny's Chatan Beraisit Honor.

 

Shabbat Afternoon Services are Back! For the foreseeable future, we will be davening Shabbat Mincha and Maariv together with Rabbi Joe Wolfson and his students. Seudah Shelishit will generally be offered, but its availability and location will depend upon local COVID positivity rates and weather. This week's Seudah Shelishit will be served outside.

We offer blessings of consolation to Harris Marks on the passing of his father, Richard Marks ז"ל. The Shiva schedule may be found here.


We are grateful to our Dr. Rebecca Betensky & Jeremy Newberger for sponsoring last Shabbat's Seudah Shelshit in observance of the Yahrtzeits of their fathers, Joseph Betensky and Philip Betensky.

 

We were unsuccessful in restarting the weekday morning Minyan. Moving forward, we would like to convene a Shacharit Minyan THIS Sunday morning. We will meet at 8:00 AM. Please help us make this a consistent success.

 

Please consider participating in our Kol Nidrei Campaign. Your support is essential - not only for our continued success - but to help us in our much needed re-building. We remind you that any amount helps our efforts and lifts our spirits.

 

If you made a Yizkor pledge on Shemini Atzeret, one possible way of fulfilling it is donating to your Synagogue. Click here.

 

On Tuesday, October 26th, we will host an event to honor the memory of Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks z"l. Rabbi Sacks was not only a world renowned Jewish thinker and leader, but an advisor and friend of our community. The event will feature chavruta study of materials specially prepared for the event by the Office of Rabbi Sacks as well as reflections on Rabbi Sacks and his Torah from educators, rabbis and scholars of the downtown Jewish community. We ask that you sign up here.
