Cemetery Memorial Service
It is Jewish custom to visit the burial places of our loved ones between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Temple Sholom observes this ritual on the Sunday between the High Holy Days. This year, that observance will take place on Sunday, September 28 at 11:00 am with a meaningful Memorial Service at our cemetery (14965 – 28th Ave., White Rock/South Surrey, BC).
We invite you to join us for this ceremony of memory. Registration is not required to attend. As is custom, please bring with you small stones to place on the graves of your loved ones (or find them in the cemetery). The service will last about 25 minutes, but the cemetery will be open throughout the day for you to visit, pray and reflect.
When the hearts of the community are joined in sorrow and support they beat as one and the comfort of a community brings a special type of healing.

Office Closed (Erev Rosh Hashanah)
We are looking forward to having you join us in-person and/or online for our upcoming High Holy Day services. We are expecting a full house for some of our in-person services. We will also have an outdoor viewing area, weather-permitting, in the Sholom Garden, where services will be simulcast on a large screen (please dress for the weather).
All in-person services will be by registration only for Temple Sholom congregants in good standing (pay here, if applicable).https://dnk31lqm.r.us-east-1.awstrack.me/L0/https:%2F%2Ftemplesholombc.shulcloud.com%2Fmember/2/010001991bc6e479-cf4cccf9-69ed-4393-8ad1-e18c4a84ee6e-000000/gHvu-dkR7LxgVXmlOECPBDrW7NU=442 You do not have to register for individual services, just for the High Holy Days in general. No "walk-ins".
Registration is NOT required for online services.
*Please ensure that your ticket(s) are either printed or readily available on your phone.
All services are in-person at Temple Sholom, and can also be viewed online via our regular streaming channels: website, Facebook,YouTube, channel 882 on TELUS Optik TV and Shaw Blue Curve TV through our YouTube Channel. Prayers for all the services are displayed on the screen but if you would like to borrow a physical copy of the Machzor please contact the office.
Parking and Accessibility: The parkade is reserved for those with a parking permit for people with accessibility needs only. Please let us know if we can enhance your High Holy Day experience through any other accessibility accommodations.
Ushers, Greeters, and Security Volunteers: We would really appreciate your help with this mitzvah of keeping our community safe and welcoming for all. If you can help, please register your interest via this form.
Wellness: Please do not come if you are unwell and/or if you have been in recent contact with someone who is unwell.
Blowing the Shofar: Our custom is to invite all members with a shofar to participate in the final sounding of Tikyah G’dolah during our First Day Rosh Hashanah service. Please bring a shofar if you have one.
Project Isaiah: The Jewish Food Bank really needs our support. This year, Project Isaiah is encouraging monetary donations instead of food donations. Cash donations are the most effective way to help. JFS can buy three times as much food as we can at the grocery store, it reduces food waste, and provides more fresh food. DONATE HERE or at 604.558.5715
CHILDREN'S PROGRAMS
Children’s programs are for children in Preschool to Grade 3, and are available from 9:30 am-12:30 pm on the first and second days of Rosh Hashanah (Tuesday, September 23 and Wednesday, September 24), and on Yom Kippur (Thursday, October 2) from 9:30 am-12:30 pm. Parents with babies/toddlers have a special room upstairs (200/201) that will have a television streaming the services.
Please register your child(ren) for the children’s programs, so we can ensure we have enough staff, snacks, crafts and activities for everyone. REGISTER HERE

NOTE: There is no childminding available during evening services. Children must always be accompanied by a responsible adult. A room will be made available upstairs in the classroom wing for parents and children that need a break. The library will not be available for this purpose during evening services due to sound filtering into the sanctuary from that room.
ROSH HASHANAH CHALLAH FOR YOUR HOME

Cemetery Memorial Service
11:00 am

12:00 pm
Cemetery Memorial Service
It is Jewish custom to visit the burial places of our loved ones between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Temple Sholom observes this ritual on the Sunday between the High Holy Days. This year, that observance will take place on Sunday, September 28 at 11:00 am with a meaningful Memorial Service at our cemetery (14965 – 28th Ave., White Rock/South Surrey, BC).
We invite you to join us for this ceremony of memory. Registration is not required to attend. As is custom, please bring with you small stones to place on the graves of your loved ones (or find them in the cemetery). The service will last about 25 minutes, but the cemetery will be open throughout the day for you to visit, pray and reflect.
When the hearts of the community are joined in sorrow and support they beat as one and the comfort of a community brings a special type of healing.
