High Holidays greeters and ushers do way more than it looks! In addition to welcoming people to services and handing out machzors with a friendly smile, they are always keeping out a watchful eye for people who may need help, and doing their best to keep us safe. In this hour-long session, we will learn how to help people having medical or psychological emergencies, how to be aware of our surroundings, and what the best practices are for emergencies specifically at the Tiffany Center and Havurah Shalom, where our High Holidays services will be taking place. Have some fun in the session, come out more knowledgeable than before, and then sign up to greet and usher when volunteer sign-ups open August 15! (This class is for members only.)

Elul Tov!

This event is being offered as part of Havurah Shalom’s celebration of the Hebrew month of Elul! As Elul precedes Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, we use this time for study, reflection, and mental and spiritual preparation. All are invited to attend our gatherings, which span spiritual, text-based, political, ecological and creative topics. We hope you will find them enriching, fun, moving, and worthwhile. You can find the full list of classes here, or see the calendar. For questions about this programming, please reach out to Rachel Pollak.
