THREE WAYS TO GET YOUR MISHKAN HANEFESH
We won’t be putting the prayers on screen so you will want to have the machzor “in hand.”
There are three opportunities so you can choose the one that is best for your family:
If you are attending in-person,
Machzors will be available for you to use during each service on site.
If you are attending online, you have two options:
Reserve Machzor(s) to Borrow (Congregation Shalom Members only)
OR
Purchase Machzor(s) from CCAR – Hardcover or the Mishkan HaNefesh E-Book, which can be read on the free Kindle App
CONGREGATION SHALOM MEMBERS:
We want YOU to participate in services!
Read English or Hebrew, have an Aliyah
or lead a larger ‘chunk’ of the service – there’s something for everyone!
Click the link below and fill out the brief form to tell Rabbi Lisa how you’d like to participate.
Book of Remembrance
Memorialize your loved ones in a keepsake booklet that will be distributed at the start of our Yizkor service. Click the link below to submit the names of your loved ones and make a contribution to Congregation Shalom in their memory.
Deadline: September 10, 2025
