Keep an eye out for the new signs and schedules for Shabbat childcare as we continue to progress in adding structure to the childcare programs. Please be patient with us as we trial some new ideas.

The childcare committee is open to feedback! Please reach out to Rachel Rabin with questions or ideas.

Kiddush Setup and Clean Up Sign Up

As a lay led shul, we ask that each member household sign up twice per year to help set up and clean up Kiddush. You can sign up here: "Kiddush setup/clean up signup sheet" Please add your name to two different weeks to ensure we have coverage. The next available date for sign up is June 15.

Childcare/Counselors Support Sign Up

We ask that each family with small children sign up twice per year to help support the counselors, ensuring the kids are where they are supposed to be. Sign up here: childcare/counselor signup sheet.. The next available date is May 25.

In addition to the wider community event, we are hoping to collect names, stories and memories from members of our shul about individuals they will be remembering on Yom HaZikaron. These names and notes will be shared over the course of the day on Yom HaZikaron. We are collecting written notes (~250 words), links to articles, pictures, or voice notes (~2 minutes) that can be distributed day-of over a designated whatsapp channel. Please send names, links and memories to me (rabbanit@shaareiorah.org) or Ari Zecher.

You can join the whatsapp channel here: https://chat.whatsapp.com/JUwnAZCRTWj2iNcUFZIuKg
