Non-Members Please Note Beth Hillel
Temple is pleased to continue its unique open-door policy with no tickets required at the holidays.
If you are not yet ready to make a commitment to become a member of the
temple, but plan to attend the High Holy Day services, we encourage you to
make a donation to the temple. The temple needs your support to be able to
offer services for everyone, and allows us to continue as a focal point of
Jewish religious, cultural, social and educational activities in Southeast
Wisconsin. Reciprocal Seating Will you be
out of town on the High Holy Days? If so, please know that your membership at
Beth Hillel allows you the privilege of reciprocal seating at any
Reform/Progressive congregation in the world. Just call the temple office to
make arrangements. Bima Flowers Honor your
loved ones by donating flowers on the High Holy Days, any of the fall
holidays, or on any Shabbat of your choosing. It is always special to have
fresh flowers on the bima. Offers will be taken on a first come, first served
basis. Gifts will be acknowledged in the announcements at services. Calling All Musicians We are
looking for instrumentalists to play at the Yom Kippur Mincha (3:30 pm)
service on October 9. Musicians must be high school age or up – having played
for a number of years. See Rabbi Feingold for sheet music for one or more
pieces on any instrument, if you are interested. (There is a keyboard in the
sanctuary.) Team Shofar Join Team
Shofar: Kids and adults (Adults=Bar/Bat Mitzvah age or older) are invited to
join Beth Hillel’s growing group of Ba’alei Tekiya—Shofar blowers. Adults
will play for Selichot, September 20, the morning service on Rosh Hashanah,
September 30, as well as the final blast of the Shofar on Yom Kippur, October
9. Kids play at the Rosh Hashanah morning family service and join the adults
at the end of Yom Kippur. If you think you might be interested but need
instruction, please see Rabbi Feingold. She also has shofarot to borrow for
practice and take-home instructions. Gift shop chair, Janet Geller, would be
happy to order a shofar for you if you would like to own one. High Holy Day Parking Reminder The parking
lots will be cleared by the hospital for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, but
please remember NOT to park in the angle parking in front of the building or
against the Masonic Temple building. The First United Methodist Church has
graciously given us permission to use their east parking lot on Sheridan Road
for Erev Rosh Hashanah, Rosh Hashanah day, Kol Nidre, and Yom Kippur day. The
parking lot is located at the southwest corner of 60th Street and Sheridan
Road with entrances on Sheridan Road. Family Services Family
Services, designed for families with children ages seven and under, are 45
minutes in length and are offered at 9:00 am on Rosh Hashanah, and at 2:30 pm
on Yom Kippur. Children of all ages are encouraged to attend regular services
as well. Tashlich All ages
will enjoy our annual walk to Lake Michigan after Rosh Hashanah morning
services. We toss breadcrumbs representing our sins into the lake. Enjoy
honey cake, apple cider, and apples and honey at the temple after Tashlich. Child Care Child care
is offered free of charge during all day-time services on Rosh Hashanah and
Yom Kippur for ages seven and under. Please
call the temple office to make a reservation for your own children and any
guests you might bring. We do not know how many sitters to hire without this
information! A break room will be offered for
children ages eight and up. Those on break are asked to limit their visits to
the break room to 15 minutes and to stay out of the child care room unless
directly assisting a younger child. Break-Fast Join us
following services on October 9 (approximately 6:30 pm*) for the traditional
Beth Hillel Temple break-fast dairy meal. This potluck is a warm way to end
your day of worship. Let us know what food you would like to contribute and how
many people will be breaking the fast with us. Please also remember that
everyone is required to make a monetary contribution to help defray the costs
associated with this event. RVSP to Debra Solomon or David Domash 653-0239 or
