We are still in need of Ushers for Yom Kippur services.  Please email Josh Levinson at [email protected] ASAP if you are willing to assist us.

In order to maintain an atmosphere conducive to High Holy Day worship, Temple Emanu-El relies on volunteers as ushers. Responsibilities for ushers include assisting our paid security team throughout the premises, controlling access to the various services, maintaining decorum within the services and adjacent areas, and assisting guests. We need to enlist as many people as possible for this effort.

Attending in person is highly encouraged, but for those needing to watch the Livestream, please CLICK HERE. This is the link for all of the High Holy Day services.

The password for the High Holy Days Livestreams is TECloster. Please do not share this password with anyone. The Livestream quality will be similar to that of our regular Shabbat services.
