  • YOM KIPPUR BOOK OF REMEMBRANCE

  • The Yizkor service is a meaningful part of Yom Kippur. At this time, we call to mind those we have lost 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, September 20. 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.

    It is traditional to honor those deceased with a charitable contribution to the synagogue. We suggest a minimum donation of $18 per name.

     

    If you are unsure which names you included in 2025/5786 you can review the booklet here.

  • VOLUNTEER | Corners of Our Fields Food Sorting Team

  • Our tradition commands us to set aside the yield of the corners of our fields for those in need, so that they may share in the bounty of our harvest. We do so by supporting local hunger relief organizations through the donation of food and supplies or money.

     

    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 9.
      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? You can donate by credit card or by sending a check made out to Shaarey Tikvah, with 'Corners of Our Fields' in the memo.
    3. Want to help sort or deliver donations? Sign up below to join us on Sunday, October 11 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.
