SHUL ACTIVITIES, EVENTS AND REMINDERS תזכורות, אירועים ופעילויות של בית הכנסת

• The challenges of COVID were replaced this year by a Kafka-esque labyrinth of fences, gates, mysterious locks, and facility issues. Thank you to all the awesome volunteers who contributed hours upon hours of thought, planning, and effort to provide meaningful Tefillot for over 700 people in four minyanim, and made it all seem easy. Our deep appreciation to the House Committee and omnipresent President for solving almost insurmountable facility issues. Special thanks to our Treasurer, to the Board, online Reservations Coordinator, the anonymous Seating Committee who returned by popular demand, Set-up Crews and other helpers, Tzeddaka Committee, Halacha Committee, and Kiddush Coordinators and Staff. And thank you to the more visible Minyan Coordinators/Gabbaim, Chazanim, Shlichei tzibbur, Torah readers, Shofar blowers, and Choir for all their time, effort and talent in creating the unique Berman's atmosphere.
• Help needed to build the Shul Succah this Friday morning October 7th, at 9:00. If you can help, please contact Jacob Silvermetz at 054-600-7778, or just show up.
• Come decorate the Shul Succah. Drop in to the Berman Succah on Erev Succot, between 9:30-11:30 Sunday October 9 to decorate it. Some supplies will be provided, but feel free to also bring your own markers/paper/scissors/tape. Hope to see you there!
• בואו לקשט את סוכת ברמן! כולם מוזמנים לבוא בערב חג סוכות, יום א׳, 9 באוקטובר, בין השעות 9.30 ו-11.30, לקשט את סוכת ברמן. יהיה קצת ציוד אבל תרגישו חופשי להביא קישוטים וציוד מהבית (טושים/נייר/מספריים/טייפ). מקווה לראותכם!
• Halacha guide for Succot. Succot is a holiday rich with custom and ritual, personal and communal. The attached guide "A Succot 5783 Guide to Prayer and Ritual" by Rabbi Aryeh Frimer contains much general information regarding ritual observance. In addition, it will hopefully assist those individuals who, because of Corona or other reasons, have chosen to pray bi-yehidut (in the absence of a minyan) - through the related issues. The useful guide is available here, and on the Noticeboard.
• Lost and found. We left a yellow toy tractor somewhere outside the Hashkama Minyan during the morning teffilot. Please contact us for Hashavat Aveda to my son who misses his toy. Thanks! Hadas- 0545410963; Boaz - 0549743456.
• Torah readers needed for many Parshiot for the upcoming year. To volunteer, please contact Shmulie Pineles stephenpineles@gmail.com for the main minyan, or Moshe Appel michael.appel@gmail.com for the Hashkama minyan. Volunteers through high school age are paid by the shul for their efforts.
• מחפשים בעלי קריאה להרבה פרשיות בשנה הבאה מי שמעוניין לקרוא בתורה מתבקש לפנות לשמואל פינלס stephenpineles@gmail.com למנין המרכזי, או למשה אפל michael.appel@gmail.com למנין ההשכמה.
