  •  These forms must be submited by September 1, 2025.

    Please complete the required information and include payment for the appropriate programs/options.

  • Member adults do not need to register for the High Holy Days. As a member in good standing, your nametag serves as your High Holy Days ticket.

    Please be sure to review the list below carefully for other relevant registration and sign ups.

    • All children who may attend childcare/programming must be registered.
    • Member children ages 18-25 do not need to be registered as they automatically receive member adult nametags.

    Members will have HHD nametags regardless of registering for or purchasing any of the above.

     

  • Host New or Non-Members for a Shabbat or Sukkot Meal

  • YOM KIPPUR BOOK OF REMEMBRANCE

  • The Yizkor Service has always been a meaningful part of the Yom Kippur Day. At this time, we call to mind our beloved departed family members and friends and unite their memories with the living community.

    As in past years, our Yom Kippur Book of Remembrance will include the names of your loved ones and will be available on Kol Nidre, October 1. Only the names of those who have passed since last Yom Kippur will be read aloud at the Yizkor Service. If you have lost a loved one during this period, when filling in the form, please select ‘Yes’ so that their name(s) may be read aloud.

    The Book of Remembrance will contain your name so that a clear relationship will be evident between the deceased and those who remember them. It is traditional to honor those deceased with a charitable contribution to the synagogue. We suggest a minimum donation of $18 per name, but any amount will be accepted.

    If you are unsure which names you included in 2024/5785 you can review the booklet here.

  • VOLUNTEER | Corners of Our Fields Food Sorting Team

  • Our Jewish tradition impels us to set aside “the corners of our fields” for the poor and the stranger, so that they might share in the bounty of our harvest. For many years, thousands of Jews have given life to that tradition by supporting hunger relief organizations by donating food and supplies or money.

    This year, we are asking our community to support local families as well as those affected by the war in Israel.

    1. Want to donate food and supplies? Shaarey Tikvah invites each member/family to donate a grocery bag of food and/or much-needed supplies. Donations must be dropped off by Friday, October 17.
      1. Items especially desired are: diapers, baby food, desserts, canned items (i.e. pasta, fish, soup, vegetables, fruit). Donations of toilet paper and paper towels are always needed.
    2. Want to donate monetarily? As Operation Iron Swords continues, Shaarey Tikvah has selected Eran's Angels as the Israeli beneficiary of these efforts. Eran's Angels provides food and supplies to soldiers, evacuees, and citizens in impacted areas.
      1. You can donate by credit card HERE or by sending a check made out to Shaarey Tikvah, with 'Eran's Angels' in the memo.
    3. Want to help sort or deliver donations? Sign up below to join us on Sunday, October 19 from 10:00 to 11:30am at the synagogue to sort donations and/or to help take donations to the various local food banks during the following week.
