Shabbat Service Volunteers
We are looking for volunteers to help out for our Shabbat Services. Tasks include helping to set up the sanctuary before the service begins, greeting our members and guests, directing people to where they can hang up their coats and then enter the sanctuary, collecting Siddurs at the end of the service. Each and every volunteer is valued - and this helps our service, and the Kiddush that follows, run smoothly and efficiently. Please register HERE
