High Holy Days
|
All 2009/5770 Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur Services will be held at Forest Hill Church. TZEDAKAH: Each year Temple Beth El participates in “The Corners of Our Fields,” an unprecedented joint appeal by the Conservative, Reform and Reconstructionist movements and MAZON: A Jewish Response to Hunger. The appeal seeks donations of non-perishable food for local charities and funds for MAZON, which makes grants to nonprofit organizations confronting hunger in the U.S., Israel and in poor countries throughout the world. Our Senior Youth Group, LIBERTY, helps to accomplish this goal. Worshippers are given bags on Erev Rosh Hashanah to fill and return with food on Kol Nidre. ALL 2009/5770 HIGH HOLY DAY FORMS ARE AVAILABLE HERE. |
