The Month of Elul

Selichot

Rosh Hashanah

The prophet Micah famously wrote (7:19), “God will take us back in love; God will cover up our iniquities. You will cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.” On the first day of Rosh Hashanah, we proceed to Clark's Pond and symbolically cast off our sins by throwing bread or emptying our pockets.
Yom Kippur


Family B'yachad Services

Led by Rabbi Sharon Litwin, Clergy Associate Ronni Pressman and guest song-leader Rachel Wolman, along with the B'yachad band, TNT families, and teen Torah readers, these services take place at 10:30am on Rosh Hashanah Day 1 and Yom Kippur morning. Our leaders engage our families in an uplifting and participatory family service for families with children in 2nd - 6th grade. (7-12th graders are welcome at our teen service or in the main service in the Sanctuary).
NEW LOCATION! This year B’yachad services will take place in the Bloomfield Middle School auditorium which can accommodate our entire community for one service at 10:30am-11:45am. The Middle School, located at 60 Huck Road, is a short 4 minute walk from TNT. All families are welcome to use the Middle School parking lot. Security from TNT will be present at the Middle School from 9:00am until the last congregant leaves.
On Kol Nidre, families are invited into the sanctuary to hear Cantor Greenberg chant Kol Nidre and then join together in the chapel for an abbreviated and special family service led by Clergy Associate Ronni Pressman and Rick Abrams in parallel with the main service.
