Yitzkor Donations

One of the enduring portions of the Yom Kippur service is Yizkor (“may God remember”) when we honor the memory of those who have died.   A donation is usually made in each deceased’s name by family and friends to commit tzedekah funds and do a deed of chesed.  All Yizkor donations made prior to Kol Nidre will be included in the Book of Remembrance available on Yom Kippur and will go toward the Kingberg Fund and the purchase of “The Gates Are Closing.”

You can make a payment through our Paypal portal on the website or hand a check to our beloved Temple Administrator, Charlotte Miller.

Or Olam Makes a Break for the Great Outdoors

Our first Sukkot campout is October 11-12 in Spencer Park , Concord.  This is a congregational event, not just a religious school happening.  You are welcome to come for the day or stay over until Sunday.  There are cabins available for rental to noncampers.

We will erect our sukkah, decorate it with crafts, dine, enjoy Havdalah,stories, songs, and take a night walk with the ranger. This is just on Saturday, and we will be finished before the gates close at 8:00 pm. Check your evite for a complete schedule.
