HJCS ANNOUNCEMENTS/Parshas Nitzavim-Vayelech

Published September 15, 2017

Refuah Sheleimah Lena Katz and Rebbetzin Schur.

We welcome Sam and Basha Sadoff as new members of Heights Jewish Center Synagogue.

We welcome Max and Chaya Winters as new members of Heights Jewish Center Synagogue.

The stone setting for Alex Adelman A’H will take place on Sunday, September 17th at 11:00 am at Mt Sinai Cemetery.

Please reserve your Lulav and Esrogim sets by contacting the office.

"It is appropriate for every G-d fearing man to make an effort to get an Aliyah on the Yomim Noraim (Rosh Hashana or Yom Kippur)… There is greater spiritual advantage in a Mitzvah that comes one's way through monetary expenditure than in a Mitzvah that has come one's way free of charge." (Mishna Berura).

If you are interested in taking the initiative in acquiring the merit of an Aliya on the Yomim Noraim, for yourself or someone else, and investing in our Kehilla at the same time, please contact the office or Martin Lipman.

There will be a community conversation about the concerns of seniors being held on Sunday at Heights Jewish Center from 12:00-1:30 pm. Heights Jewish Center does not endorse anyone or any views associated with this event.

HJC Alliyos for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur – second update

Published September 10, 2017

Here is our second update.  There are still bargains to be had, and opportunities for Cohanim and Levi’im.  Bidding for Rosh Hashanah will close a week from Tuesday (9/19) at 10 pm.  If you have placed a bid and have not heard from me since the initial acknowledgement then your bid is still good.  I will always get in touch if you have been outbid.
