Spend the High Holidays with us
Dear Friends:
We have finalized our organization and logistics for the Yamim Nora’im.
On Rosh Hashana, we will pray in our Makom, and on Yom Kippur we will pray in the Ballroom (Third Floor), which will have B’H been fully renovated by then.
For both H’agim, we will give priority seating to our regular members and will we have assigned seats to make sure that everyone is comfortably seated with their family and visitors.
Please sign up on this link https://www.wsssynagogue.com/event/high-holidays-20222, indicating the number of adults (women and men, including guests), for whom you want to reserve a seat for Rosh Hashana and/or Yom Kippur.
We are adding 30 temporary seats to the synagogue for Rosh Hashana, bringing capacity to approximately 140. We expect that all of those seats will have been allocated to the regulars and their family/visitors.
We will operate the regular children's groups throughout the Haggim. For children who are too young for groups, given the space constraints, we ask that you kindly plan to seat them on your lap. We appreciate your understanding.
For Yom Kippur, we will have approximately 250 seats in the Ballroom. Once we have registered all regulars, we will offer the available seats for sale to the general public.
As you know, this is the time when we raise funds that allow us to operate throughout the year. In the past, we have taken time out of Tefilah auction off Alyot and other Kibudim. This year, we will rely on you to renew your membership on this link: https://www.wsssynagogue.com/membership and to pledge the annual amount that you are comfortable with. As always, pledges can be paid over time in installments.
In synagogue, we will only offer the Birkot Hashanah, as well as selected Kibudim (Parnasa etc.), and we will distribute Alyot etc. ahead of time to the regular members. When you register, please indicate any request you may have.
We have accomplished so much LeShem Shamayim these past couple of years – thank you for the support, dedication, and heart that all of you have put in our beautiful Kehillah! May this be a sweet, healthy, and successful new year, and may we continue to grow closer to Hashem as a unified and loving Kehillah.
