Sukkot
Sukkot & Shemini Atseret - Simḥat Torah
Festival Services
סֻכות שמיני עצרת שמחת תורהLulav & etrog are used each morning from the beginning of Sukkot through the morning of Hoshana Rabba, but not including Shabbat. For information on ordering a lulav and etrog, contact the office at office@beki.org. Some services, and Shabbat Qiddush, are held in the sukka, weather permitting. Please dress accordingly. During Hol HaMoed and Hoshana Rabba (except on Shabbat), some wear tefillin until Hallel is begun; others do not wear tefillin during this period. The BEKI Moishe Schnitman Sukka is open for use to members and their guests, supporters and neighbors; no representation is made by the synagogue concerning the kashrut of food brought by members and their guests, supporters and neighbors for personal use in the sukka.
