Blessing of the Pets and Erev Shabbat
Friday, October 23 | 7 p.m.
As we read the story of Noah this week, we pause and recognize our special non-human friends who give us unconditional love and brighten our lives. To celebrate, we will offer a virtual Blessing of the Pets at the end of our Erev Shabbat Services and show a special slide show featuring congregants and their pets.
In-Person Erev Shabbat Services
Friday, October 30 | 7 p.m.
We invite you to register for our first in-person Erev Shabbat services since March. Registration is limited to the first 30 current members to respond. The service will be held in the main sanctuary, and entrance for those preregistered will be through the main sanctuary entrance on Old Mill Road only. Of course, services will be live streamed for those who do not attend in person.
Special Shabbat Speaker Series Returns,
Chant Torah and Help Lead Our Shabbat Worship
Saturday, October 31 | 10 a.m.
Our special Saturday morning Shabbat services will return with guest speakers Jill and Amanda Madenberg, coauthors of Love the Journey to College: Guidance from an Admissions Consultant and Her Daughter. The talk will cover how to focus on the journey to college, not just the destination; what to do if you don’t have a clear path, a major or career interest; handling the uncertainty and reducing stress; and Amanda’s personal journey to college with key tips for success. 

Congregants—from those with experience to first timers—are invited to help chant Torah and help lead a part of the service. 
Our congregation held its first virtual High Holy Days in its 92 year history.
We invite you to revisit our Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur online services.
Prayer Book Return Request
Now is the time to return your High Holy Days prayer books to the temple. They can be dropped off in the main office during regular business hours, Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. (4 p.m. on Friday).
