May this be your year.

Morning services start at 10:00 am and Afternoon at 5:30 pm.

Tashlich 5785 (2024)

It is a mitzvah to hear the blowing of the Shofar and a pleasure to do it on the waterfront.  Cast away sins and concerns with the congregation at a new location this year. 

The location will be sent by email by Wednesday, September 25. There is no on-line component for Tashlich.

“The blessing over the blowing of the shofar on Rosh Hashanah refers to the mitzvah as ‘hearing the voice of the Shofar,’ but since that voice speaks without words, the message that is heard depends a great deal on who is doing the listening.”
— Douglas Aronin

The shofar inspires us to rise above despair and embrace the promise of a better world.”
—Robert Bank
