We are excited to see you in person at our Tashlich at the Beach. Come to Will Rogers State Beach on Sunday, September 20 at 3:00 PM for our first socially-distant, in-person event of the New Year as we observe Tashlich together! Rabbi Eger and Rabbi Chaiken will greet you at Tower 10, just two lifeguard towers south of the parking lot entrance at Temescal Canyon Road and PCH. For more information, click here.

We're also trying a new way of safely gathering in-person for prayer in the new year! On the first day of Sukkot, Saturday October 3 at 10:00 AM, we will conduct our Shabbat awakening service from our Sukkah, using our parking lot as our prayer space! This service will be a hybrid experience, and will still be streamed online to our Facebook page, YouTube channel, and our synagogue website for those who are not able to join us in person. For those interested in attending in person, reservations are required, and you can click here to register!
