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 COVID-19 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.

Members and regulars who wish to attend any of the High Holiday meetings, must register in advance via our online form.Those who do not register will be unable to attend meetings upon arrival. 

Registration deadline is 9/4 at 11:00pm.

To request the link for our online registration form, simply respond to this email or send an email to info@kshsd.org

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.

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. This year, sets are $10 less than in past years!

All orders must be received by Sunday, September 12th at 1:00pm.
We will be unable to make any orders with the merchant after that date!
