Involvement in services
Religious services.
As part of our
effort to involve our members in all aspects of the community, we offer
opportunities to participate in services, with honours such as Ark opener
/closer, Aliyot laTorah (Torah call-ups), reading the Prayers for the
Congregation and Israel, lighting Shabbat candles etc. It is customary,
though not obligatory, to make a donation in appreciation of the honour.
Volunteers
Volunteers are vital to the running of our shul. Everyone’s help is
needed. The involvement of as many members of the congregation as possible
ensures success. The needs are varied and include serving on one of the
many committees which organise many of the events which take place at NSTE,
helping at events, offering to help with general office duties, assisting
with security during the High Holy Days, supervising the kitchen, baking
for kiddushim with the Kosher Kitchen Krew (K3), gardening, painting and
helping with minor repairs, assisting in the Library, helping out during
school excursions or giving an hour or two prior to High Holy Days when we
spring clean our facilities from top to bottom, inside and out.
