Come for our beautiful Simchat Shabbat service and stay for a casual BBQ dinner in our courtyard. Hamburgers, hot dogs and veggie burgers, along with pareve and gluten free buns will be provided. Participants are asked to bring a non-dairy side dish, non-dairy dessert or drinks to share.

High Holy Day Ushers Needed
|
Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur are just around the corner. To all of our High Holy Day Ushers from last year, your time and contribution to our services was so very appreciated and ensured that people were welcomed and supported as they came into Temple Shir Tikva.
We are again looking for congregants to volunteer as ushers for our High Holy Day services. If you want the perfect opportunity to volunteer at TST, this is it! A one time commitment, however, one that is vital. Our usher squad is an essential part of ensuring meaningful, engaging and participatory High Holy Day worship services for all.
Will you join our Usher Squad?
Please email Liz Vinsant, our Usher Squad coordinator, at
[email protected] to let her know if you will be able to help.
Thank you for helping our High Holy Day services run so smoothly.
Rabbi Danny
Liz Vinsant, Usher Squad Coordinator

Build-a-Backpack with JFS
|
Children Helping Children - Families Helping Families
Making a difference one backpack at a time!
Why Build a Backpack?
While some school districts are able to give their students supplies, others provide parents a list of items to get. This puts an added pressure on families in our community who are already struggling to make ends meet.
It also offers a chance to support those in the Metrowest Community
while teaching children about the importance of service and giving back.
