Dear Members and Friends of Your Shul by the Sea:
Just a few reminders for now.
You'll receive a proper newsletter in the next day or two.
Welcome to the High Holidays for 2021.
- Our Yizkor Book of Remembrance needs to go to the printer. Get you names in tonight; we will be preparing the booklet tomorrow. We ask $18 per name. Use this form.
- Based on the NYC policy for restaurants and other gathering places, we are going to ask that all who attend Face to Face Services at Morris YC be vaccinated and wear a mask while indoors. Morris has plenty of room for us to spread out, and to go outside for breaks. We will plan accordingly. We will keep the doors open for fresh air as much as possible Bring a sweater.
TO REGISTER FOR FACE TO FACE SERVICES please click here and answer all questions. Please send a copy of your proof of vaccination to yourshulbythesea@gmail.com.
- Thist year's machzor, the special prayer book for the High Holidays, will be almost exactly the same as last year. If you have yours, bring it along. For those staying home on Zoom, and for those at Morris YC, the machzor will also be shown on screen.
- All services will be availabe on Zoom, and some are ONLY on Zoom. Please see the schedule at the very end of this email. In order to attend via Zoom, we are collecting your name and email address. You will receive an email link that will work throughout the High Holidays. In this way we hope to discourage any security breaches. It will work quite smoothly if you remember to use the special link.
REGISTER FOR ZOOM and get the special link here. Note that Zoom says everything starts at 8 AM. You can ignore that! Follow the schedule below or on the calendar on the website.
 In order to offer you services at the Morris YC and on Zoom, we have incurred many additional expenses, so think about increasing your donation this year. We are paying rent to Morris, buying a video camera, etc.
If you have any questions, please write to us at yourshulbythesea@gmail.com.
- We will also be selling delicious, locally-produced artisanal small batch honey for the holidays. Please place your orders now, at $15 a jar, to sweeten your new year. Write to yourshulbythesea@gmail.com
- We will also need help setting up at the Morris on Sept. 6 at 9 AM, hoping to finish by 11 AM. Please write to yourshulbythesea@gmail.com to volunteer. If you can move a chair, we need you.
Wishing you sweetness for the year ahead!
