High Holiday Services start this evening, September 8
Beth Shalom will hold High Holiday services beginning with Erev Rosh Hashanah the evening of Wednesday, September 8. A complete and separate High Holy Day Newsletter has been mailed, requiring your response. If you know of anyone who does not have e-mail and who would like a printed version, please call Julie Blum at 472-3757 or e-mail her at bethshalomfairfield@gmail.com to request this.
Personal Note: Lisa Cohen and Julie Blum were setting up for the Holidays at the Synagogue the other day. Jane Roman Pitt and David Matt were also there preparing for the service.
Lisa and Julie report that days later they still have chills and goose bumps from experiencing the beauty of Jane’s voice singing the ancient prayers. Please come and enjoy.
