Our Shabbat Table planned
with you in mind.
Not your average regional town. Not your average Shabbat table.
It melds traditions, wisdom and teachings for both veterans and first-timers, with interactive dialogue, and easy and fun rituals.
You are a diamond
We are committed to being an open and welcoming space for every Jew, no matter what their specific situation is. Never hesitate to get in touch or drop in - you are as precious as a diamond in the eyes of G-d.
Rosh Hashanah is the Jewish New Year - the day that is celebrated as the "birthday of the world". The festival of Rosh Hashanah 5787 begins at sundown on the eve of Tishrei 1 (Sept. 11) and ends after nightfall on Tishrei 2 (Sept. 13) this year. The central observance of Rosh Hashana is hearing the blowing of the Shofar (traditional ram's horn) which will be held at both the Rodal Residence and at Shofar in the Park for your convenience on second day 13 September. See flyers below.The traditional foods for the festive meals revolve around the blessings and good tidings we wish each other for the upcoming year: sweet (goodness), plentiful, abundant and joyful. We eat round challahs dipped in honey, apple and honey and other foods that symbolise our wishes for a sweet year. There will be a community dinner on Friday 11th at Newcastle Shul and a community lunch with shofar blowing on second day 13th September.
