B’Shert Tashlich in Prospect Park
Join us on Saturday, September 16, for a music-filled Rosh Hashanah family service for families with kids from birth to brit mitzvah-age. Kids will learn about the meaning of Rosh Hashanah, sing songs, and generally have a good time in a relaxed atmosphere.
Then, after the service, walk with us to Prospect Park where we’ll have a short Tashlich service by the lake and ritually rid ourselves of our sins. (And by “sins,” we mean birdseed, which the ducks and geese are waiting for.) From there, we’ll stay in the park for field games like corn hole, ring toss, frisbee bottle bash, and more.
As we all get into the swing of the new school year, this is a perfect opportunity for parents and kids to get to know each other in a relaxed setting. Families who want to learn more about B’Shert can chat with long-time members whose kids have grown up at the congregation.
All in all, our Rosh Hashanah events are a great way to get a feel for what the B’Shert community is all about.
Here’s the day’s lineup: September 16, 2023 1:30 pm: Rosh Hashanah Family Service at B’Shert
2:30 pm: Walk together to Prospect Park for Tashlich & field games
2:45 pm: Tashlich Service
3:00 pm: Play field games and get to know other B’Shert families
Welcome to the new B’ShERT site! We are glad to have it up and running.
Do you have suggestions, comments or contributions? Feel free to email webmaster@bshert.org — and if you’d like to join the website team or communications committee, so much the better!
(Especially helpful: if you see inadvertent references to one of our precursor congregations, Temple Beth Emeth v’Ohr Progressive Shaari Zedek or Progressive Temple Beth Ahavath Sholom, in non-historical contexts… give us a heads up.)
