BCRC 'Zooms' into Rosh Hashanah
09/21/2020 11:14:39 AM
Our
Zoom High Holy Days got of to a successful start with very well attended and well received Rosh Hashanah services last week. Over 100 families attended, including most on Zoom and our Torah readers and some people selected for h
onors attending in person with social distancing. On Rosh Hashanah Rabbi Amy spoke about some very relevant issues facing us today concerning speech: Free speech, ethical speech (and the Jewish interpretation thereof) and hate speech. Watch for her text which will be posted online in this blog after the High Holy Days. Our attendees were all highly engaged in the discussion, even though they were not physically present, through the use of online polls and breakout discussion groups. Afterwards, we met outdoors for a socially distanced tashlich at Windmill Park (see Sheri Sackett welcoming the new year with a shofar blast).

Announcing Sanctuary & Social Renewal Sprint 2
Our goal is to raise $50,000 by June 30 to build a spiritual Jerusalem stone wall backdrop integrated with the bimah, with recessed lighting and built-in space for a permanent ark.We plan to have the sanctuary construction done during the summer so that we can be ready for the High Holy Days. We thank everyone who has donated to our earlier phase.
Above you can see a rendering of these exciting plans (place holders for ark and furniture). Along with the movable wall and new seating these changes will begin to give our sanctuary the feel of a permanent worship space. Click here to read full details on the project.
