5785 BOOK OF REMEMBRANCE
How do we remember a loved one, especially as we attend services during the High Holy Days and throughout the year? The answer is deeply personal, as there are many ways we commemorate, both privately and publicly.
Many Sinai Temple congregants find it meaningful to include a loved one’s name in the annual High Holy Day Book of Remembrance, which is distributed, along with prayer books, throughout Sinai Temple each year on Yom Kippur.
To include a loved one’s name in the 5785 Book of Remembrance, please click on the link below by Friday, August 9, 2024. Kindly ensure all names submitted are spelled correctly, as we’ll print the names exactly as indicated on your form, the cost is $20 per individual.
If you have any questions, please contact Judy Begin by email at [email protected] or by phone at (310) 481-3222.
We hope you have a wonderful summer and look forward to warmly welcoming you to our High Holy Day services.
