Holiday Celebrations and Observances 

Throughout the year our Temple Family joins together with a number of different celebrations and observances.  For Sukkot we have a gathering in the Sukkah.  At Hanukah we have a Latke Party, with latkes prepared by the men of Temple Beth Hillel (a long time tradition) and goods to buy from our gift shop.  

For Purim we have our Purim Carnival where we have lots of interactive games for kids of all ages, our silent auction, a costume contest, baked goods and more.  On the second night of Pesach we have our communal Seder.  For Yom Ha-Shoah we have a very thoughtful and thought provoking service with readings of and remembrances of the Holocaust.  We also celebrate Tashlich as we prepare to “throw away our sins.”  Please check the calendar for the dates and times of these events.

Shabbat and Services 

Shabbat services are important at Temple Beth Hillel.  Services are held on the first and third Friday nights of the month.  The first one is a family friendly service preceded a community potluck. The other is a more adult-oriented service. There is weekly Torah study on Saturday mornings.  (Please check the calendar for the latest information on times and location.)  There are also Saturday morning services for B’nai Mitzvot.  

In addition, there are lay-led services periodically throughout the year.  “Jewgrass”, a lay-led singing Shabbat service, features an instrumental band made up of congregants of all ages, and is held several times per year.  In addition to Shabbat services we have services throughout the year for all the major holidays including: Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, Sukkot, Simchat Torah, Yom Ha-Shoah, Purim, Pesach, and Tu B’Shevat.
