Ushers Needed Every year during each of the High Holy Days services, a dedicated crew of volunteers acts as ushers. We help seat worshipers, hand out books, keep order and work in that very visible background to help services go smoothly. We are looking for new members to join our ushering group. Men and women ages 16 and up are needed to hlep. We even have a few younger members as young as 13 who help us when they accompany their usher parent. If you are interested in joining us, please call or send me an email. Please contact Alan Kivnik at alan@kivnik.com or 508-877-6151 if interested. Calling all Shofar Blowers!If you'd like to blow shofar at the concluding service on Yom Kippur, please send email to michael.mirman@gmail.com.
