Events Kiddush Kiddush this week is sponsored by Elaine and Howard Alt in recognition of: Jonah Alt receiving his bachelor's degree from FDU Summa Cum Laude, Sara Simchi completing her Masters as a Nurse Practitioner, and in loving memory of Moishe Friedman, father of Elaine Alt, who was niftar this past Monday.

Next week on 5/23 it is our turn to pack for Tomchei Shabbat. We will be packing on Wednesday evening at 5:45pm. 13 Foster St. in Bergenfield. We need 5 volunteers to help us. The volunteers must be adults, children over age 12, or children between the age of 10-12 with an adult. I need to submit the names of the volunteers by Monday night right after Shavuot.
If you are interested contact Ellie Rothstein at ellierothstein@gmail.com High Holiday Seating Survey 2018 Shavuot and summer vacation are fast approaching and the yomim tovim this year begin September 12th. While it may seem far off, the Board of Arzei Darom is already making plans to host our shul community for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Last year we reached maximum seating capacity and continue to see our numbers grow, b"h. Therefore, the Board is considering a second minyan for the high holidays. Toward that end, we are reaching out NOW to you and your family to help us determine what steps should we take to address our seating needs. We anticipate that if we have a second minyan the pricing would be cheaper than in the main sanctuary.

Kiddush clean up is on a rotating basis, based on your last name. While we recognize that everyone in your group may not be available each Shabbat, we ask that you pitch in if you are assigned in that month so that the same people are not doing the clean-up each week. We all like kiddushes and we all make plans for lunch after shul so please be respectful of your fellow congregants by helping out during your assigned month if you are in shul. We also ask that you please watch your children during Kiddush to the extent possible, and to place their finished items in the garbage cans provided.
