Shir Chadash Events & Announcements
CLASSES WITH RABBI SILVER
Rabbi Silver's classes will return next week!
Calling All Torah Readers

We need Torah readers for Shabbat mornings! We can now offer a share of the reading, rather than all of it. To participate in this special mitzvah, and to help the community do the same, please contact Israel Finger.
Machzor Returns

Now that the High Holydays have come to an end, if you were lent a prayer book (Machzor), please return it to the synagogue at your earliest convenience. If you are unable to make it to the shul, please contact the front office to arrange alternative plans

Our Office Hours are 9 am - 2 pm, Tuesday - Friday.
Community Events and Announcements
We are excited that four institutions of the Conservative/Masorti Movement -- the Rabbinical Assembly, USCJ, The Jewish Theological Seminary, and the Ziegler School of Rabbinic Studies -- have created a joint initiative to offer high quality adult education opportunities to all those interested in participating.
ScholarStream is an exciting series that will give individuals and communities the opportunity to learn from some of the world’s leading scholars and engage deeply with our texts and traditions.
