If you know of anyone who cannot attend Shul on Rosh Hashana (Thursday, October 3, and Friday, October 4) due to illness, the need to care for an ill or elderly family member, or any other reason, please reach out to Neora at neora@villageshul.com or call her at 416-785-1107 (ext. 200).

Neora will work with Reb Zale to arrange for a shofar blower to visit their home on both Rosh Hashana afternoons.

Please note that this service is provided annually by our shul at no cost. Our aim is to ensure that every Jewish person has the opportunity to hear the shofar. We can also arrange this service in many Toronto hospitals through Bikur Cholim..
