JFS Seeks Volunteers for Senior High Holy Day Services

Jewish Family Service September 6, 2012 High Holidays Comments Off on JFS Seeks Volunteers for Senior High Holy Day Services

Rosh Hashanah is just around the corner and Boulder Jewish Family Service (JFS) is hosting services at seven local senior communities. We are grateful that several local rabbis and lay leaders have stepped up to the plate to lead these services! We are also seeking volunteers to assist during the services and help make them more meaningful and festive. This is a great opportunity for families, as the residents love when children visit.

The service schedule is listed below. If you can help at any of these, please contact Ingrid Swords, volunteer and resource coordinator at 303.415.1025 or iswords@jewishfamilyservice.org as soon as possible.

Join Us for a Meaningful Humanistic Yom Kippur Celebration!

Humanistic Judaism considers Yom Kippur to be the culmination of the self-analysis that was initiated on Rosh Hashanah. We are offered the opportunity to ask forgiveness from ourselves as well as from those we have wronged, and we vow to be active, involved, caring people in the coming year.

Tishrei Tidbits- Rosh Hashanah

An obvious question this year is why, when the first day of RH comes out on Shabbat, don’t we blow the shofar?
