Exciting news! We have secured our High Holiday Location!

It is with tremendous gratitude to HaKadosh Baruch Hu that we share with you the exciting news that our management has graciously accepted our request to continue use of the larger unit for our High Holiday Tefillot this year!

Due to space limitations, High Holiday Tefillot are open to Kehillah members and regulars only (exceptions may be requested via email for immediate family on case-by-case basis, as well as for worldwide Shiviti members, space-permitting). All outsiders, even if they are guests of our members, will not be allowed entry.

We hope for a day where we can reinstate our famous Kehillat Shaar HaShamayim hospitality, and this is a necessary first step to reaching that goal.

Rabbi's Logistical Team

High holidays this year will present us with unprecedented logistical challenges, but the reward of finally being able to be together will make all of it worthwhile.

Only if you 1) have ample free time and 2) are physically able to lift chairs/books/tables and wish to volunteer for the Rabbi's logistical team, please email rabbi@shiviti.org.

Want to help but can't commit to the above?

We will inevitably incur unplanned expenses in preparing our new location for the High Holidays and could always use your help.

Kindly consider contributing to our High Holiday fund by clicking here!

Lulav and Etrog Order - Deadline 9/29

With thanks to Rabbi Eddie Rosenberg at Young Israel of San Diego, Kehillat Shaar HaShamayim is able to offer you quality sets of the four species this holiday season!

This is a great opportunity for all men, women and children of our community to take part of this special Mitzvah and obtain their own set of the four species this holiday season! At the very least, each household should bring one set into their home this year!

All proceeds cover the cost of the sets - Kehillat Shaar HaShamayim offers this purely as a service to our community. Please note that this year, sets are only $5 more than in past years.

Anyone who needs financial assistance in obtaining a set can reach out Rabbi Yonatan confidentially.

All orders must be received by Thursday, September 29th at 1:00pm.
We will be unable to make any orders with the merchant after that date!

In this week's class, we will continue dispelling the myth that the Rama’s Halachic stances are “more stringent” than those of Maran by gathering dozens of examples where the former deviates from Talmudic Law while the latter upholds it, with a special focus on the permissibility of Rabbanim receiving payment for their services.

Rare Oppurtunity - Partner with the Shiviti Bet Din

As you know, our Shiviti Bet Din offers conversion to Judaism absolutely free of charge to prospective converts. With Hashem's help, we are set to meet just after Sukkot and welcome a number of new members to the Jewish people.

Even though our Bet Din operates free of charge, we still incur epenses in order to meet. Our projected cost for this meeting (airfare, local travel, certificates, ritual items, etc) is just over $1600.

If you would like to partner with us and sponsor any portion of our operating costs, please click the link below! Tizku L'Mitzvot!

Partner With Us!

Shiviti Bet Midrash - IN PERSON Classes Have Resumed

Shiviti Bet Midrash - Updated Zoom Guidelines

Expanding Horizons: Law(lessness) and (Dis)order (Part 4)

In this week's class, we will continue dispelling the myth that the Rama’s Halachic stances are “more stringent” than those of Maran by gathering dozens of examples where the former deviates from Talmudic Law while the latter upholds it, with a special focus on the permissibility of Rabbanim receiving payment for their services.

This class is part of our newest series “Expanding Horizons: Refreshing Perspectives From Giants of Jewish Thought” at the Shiviti Bet Midrash UK!
