You may not have had the chance to attend this unique service, which often falls on a weekday morning. But now is your chance! The service will take place on Sunday, October 8 at 10:00 am, while the kids attend a Simchat Torah edition of BESTT. Join us as we read the final portion in the Torah, "V'ZotHaBerachah," and read from the first portion, "Bereshit." We’ll honor our Hatan Torah and Kallah Bereshit with special aliyahs, and challenge our Haftarah reader to persevere while we create all kinds of wacky distractions. Finally, we'll conclude with a musaf service in which Hazzan Krausman goes rogue by throwing out our traditional tunes in favor of some of his favorite songs. Where else can you pray to the tune of “There is No Place Like Nebraska”?

For those who aren't able to attend in person, please join us via Live Stream: https://venue.streamspot.com/eb28b85f
