7th day of Passover/Yizkor Service

The last day of Passover is one of the 4 times during the year that we have a memorial service, called Yizkor (other times are Yom Kippur, Shavuot and Sukkot) We invite everyone to join us for this sacred service which follows the reading of the torah and haftorah.

Yizkor is based on the Jewish belief in the eternity of the soul. Although a soul can no longer do good deeds after death, it can gain merit through the charity and good deeds of the living.


Temple Beth Sholom Offices and School will be closed on Monday, April 9 in observance of Passover.

We have officially moved into our new building. When coming to visit the Clergy, Administrative offices or the Education Department, please enter through the Welcome Center and check in with our Receptionist. She will announce your arrival to the person with whom you have an appointment and they will meet you in the Welcome Center.

We are looking for greeters/docents and/or people to work in the Welcome Center. If you can volunteer for a 2 hour shift on a regular basis, please contact Ariane Davis at ext. 258. We are putting together a corps of Volunteers, our B'nai Shalom, to be a part of our beautiful new Welcome Center.

Mitzvah of the Month

Israel needs you and you need Israel!

Now more than ever!

This April we are celebrating Israel’s 59th birthday. There are many activities that are taking place at Temple Beth Sholom to support Israel and celebrate it.

Helping our brothers and sisters in Israel is a mitzvah, so this April, help us raise funds for those in need. Rabbi Glickstein, Cantor Haas and members of Temple Beth Sholom going on the Magical Mitzvah Tour will be distributing the money collected in different institutions and organizations. Your contribution is certainly appreciated. Please look for our tzedakah box in the Welcome Center and be generous.

Young Professionals
Who are we?
