Have you ever wanted to participate in services?
How about read Torah or Haftorah?
We are looking for congregants that would like to lead something in the services. We have a good core group of people that we know about, but we also know there are others out there that haven't been given the opportunity to participate. Now's your chance... even if you just want to do one page we can work with you to include you in the service. Can you read Torah or Haftorah? We are going to start scheduling readers up to months in advance to allow individuals that need time to prepare, time to do so. Would you like to learn a part, a whole service, learn to read Torah or Haftorah? We can work with you to make this happen. We will form classes or work one-on-one, whatever works best for you.
We are building a database of this information, so just let the synagogue office know who you are, what you can lead or would like to lead, and if we don't have your e-mail, please provide that as well. Call the office at Beth Shalom at 782-2500 or email at BethShalom@bellsouth.net.
