Synagogue Announcements
Coat Taken by Mistake A beige London Fog trench coat was mistakenly taken over Rosh Hashanah. If you discover you have brought home the wrong coat, please kindly return it to the synagogue. Thank you.
Ushers Still Needed! In the midst of the holidays, we are reminded of the importance of being an open and welcoming community as well as a safe one. We are in the process of scheduling our ushers for the holidays, but still need your help! We work hard to keep usher shifts to 1 hour. If you are willing to help with this important role, please use the following link to enter your name into one or more time slots. Several of the time slots for Yom Kippur are still open: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_X18-1fxPtV9_sIcj5bXhfr8nC-baTO2T1JFNdntBck/edit?usp=sharing
We will make sure to let you know about any changes to the schedule.
Thank you for your service to the Torat Emet community.

Sukkah Rebuild Effort Last Wednesday! Last Thursday!! As some of you know, the shul's sukkah frame suffered catastrophic damage last week due to the storms that passed through. With heroic effort Jorge, our new employee Diana Gonzalez Borbon, Rabbi Zack and volunteer member Noah Katz worked diligently all day on Wednesday pulling the mangled mess apart and scrambling to find the needed building materials to rebuild the sukkah frame.
Special shout outs to Loeb Electric for having the 60 metal poles that we needed, to Sam Nutis for cutting the poles to size in the Nutis Press metal shop, to Stu Appelbaum and his pickup truck for transporting the material, and to Marcia and Avrom Epstein for their ladder and volunteer help.
Jorge and Diana worked hard on Thursday rebuilding the sukkah frame so we had a place for our Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur outdoor services.
What an amazing 24-hour effort!
Please note that new building materials cost approximately $1500. If you would like to make a donation in order to help the shul cover this cost, please click here and choose "Sukkah Rebuild Fund" for the donation type.

The Wellness Program of LifeCare Alliance is pleased to provide you with a convenient option to get your flu shot this year. On Sunday October 2, beginning at 9am, flu shots will be available outside the residence of Elana Burak (3045 Elbern Ave.) Please call Elana at (614) 437-2912 or email her at eburak@lifecarealliance.org to let her know how many adults and/or children will be getting vaccinated so that we don’t run out. She will let you know what paperwork to bring as any charges will be run through your insurance in the same way they would be if you were visiting your doctor’s office or local pharmacy.
Director of Wellness and Registered Nurse, Melinda Rowe, will be administering the flu shots in a “drive-thru” fashion. You won’t have to wait in a long line or deal with a crowded waiting room. All COVID-19 safety protocols will be enforced. Children age 4 and up are eligible if they have received a flu shot in the past.
Please note we are in network with most insurance companies but please let Elana know what insurance you have when scheduling
