HIGH HOLIDAY SEATING
The High Holiday Seating Committee hopes to be able to send out seat location confirmations this Friday. If your plans have changed and you will no longer need your seats, please let us know as soon as possible so we can make every effort to seat as many members as possible in their preferred locations. Please email at hheats@rinat.org. We would also like to satisfy the requests of a growing waiting list. Yom Kippur seats are available by clicking here.
GABBAI NOTE
On Friday night, there will only be 2 mincha/maariv minyanim, 5:40pm in the Beit Midrash and 7pm in the Main Sanctuary. This is the last week of the Friday night Plag minyan.
