Temple Beth Shalom in Melrose is a warm and inclusive Reform Jewish community with a long tradition of welcoming all to our services, including for the High Holidays, regardless of membership status and without the traditional “ticket” system.
This year we have decided to return to the synagogue for all of our services! We are happy to be back home, but we do need to understand how many people will be attending.
Please fill out this form to help us plan!
Kindly respond by September 11th.

YIZKOR
Yizkor, in Hebrew, means “remember” and each year at the Yizkor Service on Yom Kippur we publicly remember our departed family and friends by reading their names before the congregation and reciting prayers in their memory. The traditional Yizkor prayer includes a pledge to make a charitable donation (tzedakah) in memory of the deceased. Information on how to donate is here.
