Yes – we are always looking for ushers to help us create the best possible High Holy Day experience for our attendees. We are looking for a few ushers to aid us in our efforts to assist our congregants and maintain the usual level of decorum in our High Holy Day services! If you normally attend Erev Rosh Hashanah, early service either Rosh Hashanah or Yom Kippur or second day Rosh Hashanah and would be willing to serve as an usher, you would be greatly appreciated. If you can help, please contact Bob Kendler, at 908-232-1893 or bobkendler@gmail.com.

We hope so! All of our prayer books are fully transliterated and all of our services include English readings.

All service-goers are welcome to wear a tallit during our morning services and the evening of Kol Nidre. In recognition of the vision of our founders, men are required to wear a kippah on our bima; women are welcome to wear one as well.  We have both available for use at all of our services.
