Decorum During Services
We greet you and hope that your visit with us will be a spiritual and educational
experience.
To help you feel "at home" and to help us maintain the atmosphere
of devotion worthy of a house of G-d, we would appreciate your cooperation in
the following:
- Smoking and photography are not permitted anywhere on the premises or on
the grounds around the building during the Sabbath and Holy Days.
- On the Sabbath
and on Holy Days, please do not use the telephones in our building, except
in the case of an emergency.
- We request that all males wear head coverings, and that adult Jewish males
wear a tallit (prayer shawl). All women should be modestly dressed; covered
shoulders, dresses which are minimally at knee length.
- Temple Beth Sholom hopes
that all guests, especially children, display behavior appropriate for
a house of worship and respect for the premises.
- We love children at our services, but please be sure that your youngsters'
behavior is suitable for the synagogue. For your comfort and convenience,
a portion of the Helman Auditorium, just under the balcony on the Rabbi's
side of the sanctuary, will be open for seating. If your child's attention
span begins to falter, this section will provide easy access to an exit.
- Friday
night services begin at 6:15 pm and end around 7:30 pm. Saturday morning
services begin at 9:30 am and conclude at approximately 12:30 pm.
- Please wait
until after services to greet relatives, to socialize and to extend best
wishes.
