Letter from Rabbi Ross
Dear TBS Friends and Family,
Let go of the week and join us for a musical Shabbat this Friday at 7:30. Robin Selinger will be our musical soloist.
We will talk about preparing for Rosh Hashanah and we will learn a new melody for Achat Sha’alti, the special psalm for the “season of returning.”
Join us!
Torah For Our Times Saturday, 9/21
We are returning to our popular Torah study class, “Torah For Our Times.” In September, we will focus on High Holiday themes.
Each session will be from 9:30 am – 11:15 am. We will study Torah for about an hour or so, and then have a brief morning prayer service.
Bagels and cream cheese will be served!
Each session is hybrid – both on zoom and in-person!

Donations to support Israel can be made at
Cleveland Federation:
Temple Beth Shalom can now use Zeffy for donations, membership dues or other payments. On the Dues/Fees/Donations tab on tbshudson.org is the option Zeffy, which works like PayPal except Temple Beth Shalom does not pay a fee. Dues/Fees/Donations Link
Zeffy works from voluntary donations from those who pay with Zeffy. If you select Zeffy, you will be taken to a form. On the form you will be asked for:
• Donation amount
• Email, Name and Address
• A description of the payment (Membership, Fees, other)
• Payment information
You then select “Donate”, and it will ask if you wish to make a voluntary donation for Zeffy’s services. You can still pay by PayPal by using the “Pay Now” button on the Donations tab, which will charge a set fee to Temple Beth Shalom. You can also send a check. We can take stock donations into our new Vanguard account, which does not charge fees for processing. If you have any questions, please email James Field at accounting@tbshudson.org
