TEXT: High Holy Days Ushers IMAGE: Joelle & Mark - usher chairsUsher at High Holy Days services

Our ushers play a key role in greeting congregants and guests and providing a warm and friendly welcome to Temple Israel. They also get to reserve their seats of choice at each service they serve as an usher!

Join our awesome team of holiday ushers below by Sunday, September 22.
Ushers must be age 16 or older.
