Preparing for the High Holidays with Beth Huppin: Un’tane Tokef – A Central Prayer on both Rosh HaShanah and Yom Kippur Wednesday, 9/9, 7:00-8:00pm—https://bit.ly/31wYvjL This prayer is known as the prayer that asks: “Who Shall Live and Who Shall Die?” But, if we look closely we see that the deeper questions it asks are: What is Our Place in the World at this Moment? And: How Might We Live Meaningfully While We are Here? During this historic time, these questions take on new meaning. We will examine this text together and see what new insights it might provide us this year.
How to Make Round Challah with Susan Monas Friday, 9/18, 1:00-1:30pm and 5:00-5:30pm—https://bit.ly/3guQal6 Learn how to mix, knead, braid and bake round challah.

If you can’t make it back for 5pm, Susan will provide a quick demo of the braiding at the end of the 1pm session.

Selichot Rhythms
Saturday, Sept. 12, 9:00pm Being in isolation for months has upset all of our daily rhythms.
As we approach Rosh Hashanah, we will attempt to restore
some rhythm in our life through Selichot and drumming. We
will hear each other's voices and see each other's faces. We'll
sing familiar music, hear some new tunes, and find new ways to
be spiritually connected to each other. If you have a drum,
please have it with you. If not, a phone book or just a table top
will work just fine.

Break Fast Recipes with Marci Greenberg Wednesday, 9/23, 7:00-8:00pm—https://bit.ly/3gtAUVD Join former CBS staff member Marci Greenberg as she shares some of her favorite recipes for Yom Kippur break-fast.
Ma Nishtana hahagim haeleh mikol hashanim acherot -
In which ways are these holidays different than all other years? This year, along with everything else in our world, our high holiday communal celebrations will look very different than every other
year. In consultation with our COVID committee regarding safety, other communities, and feedback from our own community, we
are offering a large array of different programs to include as many of our members as possible. We are offering both in person
services (slightly shortened and adjusted this year for safety concerns), short outdoor prayer experiences, streaming of all our
services in the main sanctuary (with a timetable for you to choose when to join and information on how to log on before the
holiday), special prerecorded audio and video segments sent to you in advance for your use before or after the holiday, home
celebration materials. We are also moving of some of our programming to zoom during the month surrounding high holidays
instead of on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.
Our greatest priorities are safety, meaningful holiday celebrations and meeting our community’s needs.
All of our in-person services are ONLY by pre-registration with restricted numbers and open ONLY to members.
We are not be able to accommodate anyone not pre-registered by the deadline
We are not able to accommodate non-members for our in-person services.
We are committed to offering at least one in person prayer opportunity on Rosh Hashanah and one opportunity on Yom Kippur to
all of our members who pre-register by the deadlines (see p. HH 4). Our hope is that members will be able to attend everything
they would like in person, however it is too hard for us to accurately predict demand far in advance, and we are unable to promise
that members will be able to attend everything they would like. We are doing our best to scale up and offer more services to ac-
commodate more people with each service having many fewer people and strict size restrictions.
We will have a first round of registration for services to make sure everyone is able to attend one in-person service per holiday. If
there are still spaces available, we will offer a second round of registration where people can pre-register for second service per
holiday. After the second round, if there are still spaces, you will be able to register for as much as you want in the third round.
(see p. HH 4 for deadline information)
Everyone is welcome, and there are no size restrictions to any of our streaming or zoom programs. We will send out a detailed
schedule of services for the main sanctuary in advance of the holiday.
Shana Tovah! 5781 Wishing you a good, sweet, and healthy new year
Drive Thru Machzor & High Holiday Kit Pick-up
On Sunday, September 13, 1:00-3:00pm we will have a drive–thru machzor check-out for members. Just
enter the shul driveway from 35th Ave NE (the north side of the building) and follow the driveway to the
downstairs entrance. The Religious School families’ drive-thru is 10:30am-12:00pm.
Return your borrowed machzor when you pick up your Lulav and Etrog, or come by to return it during
office hours. You can also return it on Wednesday, Oct 7, 3:30-5:30pm and come to the Sukkah to shake

Greeting Rosh Hashanah with Apples, Honey, Leeks, and Beets
Sunday, September 13th, 5 pm
Prepare for 5781 by participating in an
interactive, online Rosh HaShanah seder with

Sephardic and Mizrahi custom, participants are
invited to procure and eat during the seder
foods symbolically associated with different
intentions for the new year. Please RSVP by
Friday, September 11th at 9am for a list of
foods you will need at home for the seder and
to be assigned a reading if you would like one.

are planning on two seders with limited
participants. The seders will be led by Karin
Madwed and Margot Kravette.

HIGH HOLIDAYS 5781— PANDEMIC YEAR FAQS
V’nishmartem me’od l’nafshoteichem - “you must surely take care of yourselves.”
Jewish tradition teaches that we have a sacred responsibility to take care of ourselves and to take care of each other.
At the High Holidays, we are prioritizing the health and safety of our members while also maximizing the opportunities to partici-
pate with Pre-recorded Programs, Streaming Services, Interactive Zoom programs,
In-Person Indoor and In-Person Outdoor Services
What are the COVID-19 protocols?
You may not attend in-person services or programs if, within the last 10 days, you have had possible symptoms of COVID-19,
including: cough; shortness of breath; fever; chills; muscle pain; sore throat; or new loss of taste or smell. If you have had
these symptoms but tested negative for COVID-19 you may return to Beth Shalom after 24 hours.
Everyone over the age of 2 who is attending in-person services or programs (indoor and outdoor) must wear a
mask at all times. The mask must cover both nose and mouth. We will enforce this requirement. If you need a
breath of air, you’re welcome to step outside.
At indoor services and programs, only the service leader may sing. At outdoor services and programs, singing (while masked)
is allowed.
Social distancing in all areas of the synagogue is required at all times.
Seating at in-person indoor services will be by household with a 6 foot separation from all other households.
Only two people are allowed in restrooms at one time.
You are encouraged to bring your own kippah, tallit, and prayerbook to minimize sharing.
How do I get a ticket?
Tickets will not be sent by mail this year. Instead members must pre-register for any in-person service or program. To expedite
your entry into the synagogue on the High Holidays, please print your registration. You will not be permitted to attend any
In-Person Service (indoors or outdoors) without pre-registration.
What about my children?
Children (age 0—32) of members are welcome to attend High Holiday services as long as they are pre-registered.
Adult children (over 32) of members must become members of CBS in order to attend in-person services or programs.
(Membership applications are available at: https://bethshalomseattle.org/home/become-a-member/ or call the Beth Shalom
office to request one by mail )
Children are required to sit with parents in the service and follow all COVID protocols (masks, social distancing).
When can I hear the shofar?
On the 2nd day of Rosh Hashanah at indoor. We won’t blow it on the 1st day of Rosh Hashanah.
At Neilah service on Yom Kippur, there will not be a communal shofar blowing.
The shofar blower will be stationed outside in order to allow all those inside to safely hear the shofar.
How can I get a machzor (High Holiday prayerbook) to follow the streaming service from home?
On Sunday, September 13, from 1-3pm (10:30am-12pm for Religious School families) we will have a drive–through machzor
check-out for members. Just enter the shul driveway from 35th Ave NE and follow the driveway to the downstairs entrance.
Return your borrowed machzor when you pick up your Lulav and Etrog, or come by to return it during office hours.
Unable to leave your home to pick up a machzor? Let us know, and we’ll add you to our volunteer delivery route.
Where do I park my car?
The east parking lot will be closed. We’re asking members to leave the spots in front of the synagogue for anyone who may have
trouble walking a long distance. We’re looking for additional parking in the area and if we’re able to make arrangements, we’ll let
you know in cybershul.
I’m not a CBS member, how do I join?
Contact our Executive Director, Carol Benedick at 206-524-0075 ext 2502 or [email protected]. You can also

Rosh Hashanah Shanah Tovah Social Thursday Sept 17th, 7:00pm, Zoom
Join Rabbis Borodin and Rose and Mara Benjamin for a pre-holiday social on zoom.
For many of us, one of the joys of the holidays is being able to greet our fellow congregants, catch up with them and wish them a new year. Indeed, the lobby is always a very popular location on the high holidays.
This year, it will be hard for us to greet you all in person because of the face masks, the 6’ distancing requirement, and the fact that many of our members will be joining services from home.
But have no fear, we have created a community opportunity to meet and greet one another and wish each other a Shanah Tovah. Join us on zoom the night before Rosh Hashanah for a few special holiday tunes led by Mara and special blessings for the new year and a chance to greet one another. We encourage you to have a blank piece of paper and a marker for this event. Register for the Shanah Tovah Social on zoom:
https://bit.ly/3lcXS6Q
Private Meditation Time in the Sanctuary
One Beth Shalom Yom Kippur tradition is the invitation to all to come up to the bimah during Neilah to offer your own private prayers. This year, we are not able to invite members to the bimah.
We also know that, during the pandemic, some of our members do not feel comfortable being in the sanctuary with others. We would like to give members a time for private prayer, reflection and meditation in our sanctuary, before the ark.
We will be opening our sanctuary September 8-15th, by advance registration for individuals or households to book a half hour, during business hours for their own individual time. Meditation sheets, machzorim and siddurim will be available. To reserve a time slot, please email [email protected] or call 206-524-0075.

HIGH HOLIDAYS 5781
Tashlikh - A Symbolic Casting Off of Our Sins
Tashlikh is most commonly done on the first day of Rosh Hashanah (or the second day if the first day is Shabbat in Ashkenazi tradition). However it can be done anytime during the High Holiday season through Hoshanah Rabbah. The ceremony is traditionally done at a body of water (ideally one with fish) and is a brief ritual where we symbolically place our sins onto bread which we throw into the water, symbolically casting off our sins. It is supposed to motivate and accompany repentance work where we ask people directly for their forgiveness for hurting them.
This year we will be doing Tashlikh at Magnuson Park; contact the office at 206-524-0075 for details. Rather than all gathering at once and having crowds, we will be doing a Tashlikh “open house” where you are wel-come to drop by and join our rabbis and shinshiniot anytime between 4:30-6:30 pm on Wednesday, Sep-tember 23rd. We will have information on the ceremony and encourage you to bring your own bread.

A NEW format and time for Yizkor - the morning of Kol Nidrei, before Yom Kippur on Zoom
Under the guidance of the Rabbinical Assembly, with the desire to allow all who would like to participate safely in Yizkor, we will be holding the Yizkor service on zoom on Sunday, September 27th at 10:30am with Carl Sayres and Rabbi Borodin. This will take the place of Yizkor on Yom Kippur day. It is too challenging from a COVID perspective for people to be entering and leaving the Sanctuary and gathering in the lobby. In addition to the traditional prayers for Yizkor, there will be an opportunity for people to share some memories about their loved ones. We look forward to being able to make this service more personal.
We will have all the Yizkor prayers shared by zoom as well as our Yizkor booklet. We invite you to have a yahrzeit candle and
matches and we will light together as part of our Yizkor service. Register for Yizkor on zoom: https://bit.ly/3hpmnvr

Safety and Security Update
It is crucial that we all observe the following protocols for keeping our congregation safe:
Please look around you and identify the nearest exits
Pay attention to the locations off safety equipment around you in the Sanctuary (AED, fire alarms,
fire extinguishers, etc.)
Anyone displaying symptons of COVID-19 may not enter the building and may not attend outdoor
services.
All attendees must be social distanced at least six feet apart and must wear masks covering nose
and mouth at all times.
Only two people at a time are allowed in the restrooms.
Adults—please closely supervise any children in your care and help them follow our new safety
protocols.
We appreciate your cooperation, support,
vigilance, and kindness.
Parking
The east parking lot will be closed during the holidays.
We ask that members leave the spaces directly in front of
the building open for people who are unable to walk a
long distance. If we’re able to arrange other parking options, we’ll let you
know in cybershul.
If you are able, please consider walking or parking several blocks from
Beth Shalom to make parking easier for everyone.
Please enter Beth Shalom through the doors upstairs on holidays.
High Holiday Campaign
The High Holiday Campaign is a critical part of Beth
Shalom’s annual fundraising. To meet our goals this
year, we need to earn $114,000 from the
High Holiday Appeal.
Thanks to our members’ generosity with the
Annual Support Agreement this spring,
$20,273 has already been raised towards this goal.
Toddah Rabah!
Practices for the Days of Awe
The ten-day period beginning with Rosh Hashanah
and ending with Yom Kippur is known as the Ten Days
of Repentance, or the Days of Awe - Yamim Noraim.
Yom Kippur is known as Shabbat Shabbatot, the
Sabbath of Sabbaths, and is the holiest day of the
year. Even when Yom Kippur does not fall on Shabbat
all of the restrictions of Shabbat apply. It is customary
to wear white and avoid wearing leather. Some wear
a kittel (plain white linen robe) during services. The
Tallit is worn at all Yom Kippur services until the end
of Neilah, including Kol Nidrei - the fast is 25 hours
long, beginning before nightfall and ending after
nightfall.

From the Staff at Congregation Beth Shalom:
We very much missed being with Beth Shalom last high holidays when we were in Israel. We had a wonderful experience being on sabbatical in Israel for the year and enjoyed the pomegranates being local and ripe at Rosh Hashanah time. We're excited to be back at Beth Shalom and want to wish everyone a healthy new year, a year filled with joy, and laughter, stability and growth. We
look forward to finding different ways to connect and support one another through this pandemic. Shanah Tova. - Alexandra, Naomi and Rabbi Borodin
“Challah” at us! We can’t
wait to see you virtually or
in-person over the holidays!
