Dear Congregants and Friends,
Please join us for special Sukkot services tonight Wednesday September 22, starting at 7pm, as we welcome in this special holiday in our own Beth El sukkah. We’ll provide the lulav and etrog and light deserts in the sukkah.
Sukkot day services will be tomorrow morning, Thursday September 23. Please plan to join us for both.
Friday night services will be at the regular time of 7pm.
Chag sameach to you and your families.
Congregation Beth El
The happiest holiday of the calendar is almost upon us. It is known as Z’man Simchateinu 
, the Season of our Rejoicing.
Lots of Sukkot services, and we’ll post any other special events as the plans are finalized.
Yom Kippur begins Friday evening and we’ll have a Kol Nidre service at 7:15 SHARP. Not 7:20. Not even 7:16. 7:15. Please be prompt.
As on Rosh Hashanah, parking on both driveways is reserved for the disabled and those unable to walk a block. There is additional parking at the office park across the street and on Dominion Cove just a block away (toward Jollyville).
Saturday morning we will begin at 9 AM with the Torah service at approximately 10:30. At about 11 AM, we will have two children’s services: one geared toward pre-school and kindergarten ages and the other more appropriate for elementary-school children. Both groups will hear the story of Jonah.
Mincha will be at 5:45 Saturday, with Neila at approximately 7pm. All are invited to stay for a congregational break-the-fast.
HaMorah Betsy will be leading a service for 6-12 year old students on the First Day of Rosh Hashanah (Thursday) at approximately 11 AM. We will pray, have a Torah service with a student Torah scroll, read the Torah readings in English, discuss the prayers, and hear the shofar blown.
We’re using the Tiku Shofar Machzor, kindly loaned to us from Congregation Agudas Achim, and we plan to use it again on Yom Kippur.

שנה טובה ומתוקה
From all of us at Congregation Beth El, we want to wish you and your family a Shannah Tovah V’Metuka, a Sweet and Happy New Year.
