Thanks to our members who have already volunteered to usher over the holidays. We still have needs for ushers at the following Services:
- Late Kol Nidre Service at 9:15 PM (Tues. 9/22)
- Early Tot services at the Temple on Rosh Hashanah (Mon. 9/14) and Yom Kippur (Weds. 9/23) at 8:45 AM. We especially need volunteers to greet and collect tickets for our youngest worshipers, their parents and grandparents for these joyous services.
Ushers play a key role in having our services run smoothly by collecting tickets, assisting with seating and being a go-to-resource to assist with answering basic questions for congregants and guests. Please contact Executive Director Ellen Agler at eagler@templesinaidc.org if you can help.

Sunday, September 6 & Monday, September 7
The NAACP in partnership with multiple organizations including the CCAR (The Central Conference of American Rabbis) is undertaking a 40 day march this summer from Selma, AL to Washington, DC. Every night of the 860-mile journey, travelers will come together in prayer, and study together in teach-in sessions on the compelling civil rights issues of our day.
Rabbi Adam will be driving to Raleigh, North Carolina on Sunday, September 6 to join the march on Labor Day, Monday, September 7. He will be one of many who will have the honor of carrying a Torah on the way. The journey will be hard and hot...but so worth it! If you are interested in marching with Rabbi Adam and other Temple Sinai members, please email him at arosenwasser@templesinaidc.org. |
