High Holidays 5781
Things might look different this year, but the Tremont Street Shul is gearing up to bring the joy and comfort of the holiday season to you in a variety of creative and safety-oriented ways. Below you may find our assortment of holiday purchases, and we will soon have a full calendar of events to help you connect with others, and be renewed for a fulfilling year ahead. May you and yours have a year of health, goodness and sweetness. Shana tovah umetukah!
High Holiday Machzor Request
To request a High Holiday machzor (prayerbook) for use at home during Rosh HaShana and Yom Kippur, please email Josh in the office. Additionally, we will be updating the collection of machzorim used for the Egalitarian services led by R. Robbie Harris and David Sandberg next year. To that end, we are offering our Harlow machzorim -- which have been the ones in use for those Egalitarian services to date -- for you to keep in your home library. Let Josh know if you would like to keep them. This offer is open to the community, no matter whether you attend the services this year or not. This offer is at no cost to you, though we appreciate donations to offset the cost of this machzor upgrade for the shul.
Videos from High Holiday Zoom services
Here are some videos from the Zoom services. They include Rabbi Harris's divrei Torah and the Shofar service.
