Simchat Torah

Ohav Sholom would like to encourage the Hebrew School parents to bring their children to services on Tuesday morning October 25 and Wednesday morning October 26. We understand that these are days marked on the public school calendar as Days of Religious Observance (DRO). No new work or exams are to be given on these days. Please keep your children out of school and bring them to Ohav for service.

Simchat Torah services are Tuesday evening (6:40 PM) and Wednesday morning. We will be dancing with the Torah's on the front lawn - weather permitting. Each class created a large Simchat Torah banner to dance with. The children take pride in their work. Please bring them to dance with their banners.

Chag Someach!

Due to circumstances beyond our control Ohav Sholom is canceling classes for Sunday October 16. The Hebrew School wing of our shul is flooded from the recent rains.

If you purchased a Lulov and Etrog from the shul they will be available for pick up Sunday morning 9:30 am -11:00 AM upstairs near the main sanctuary. There will be another pick up time Monday morning

Hope to see you all on Sukkot. Tuesday, October 18 is our annual Sukkah hop. 2:30 PM - 5:00 PM. The five families have graciously offered to invite the congregation to their succahs. Please feel free to visit more than one home. No rsvp is required. Please check with the office for the list of families.


We encourage you to keep your children out of public school on October 18 and 19 for Sukkot and October 25 and 26 for Shimini Azeret and Simchat Torah.
