Able to arrive at 9:15 and stay til noon? We need some volunteers who can help accompany seniors to and from their rooms. You'll be trained on the spot - this is a real mitzvah. Please let Rabbi Leora know if you are able to help out (rabbileora@gmail.com).

Parking instructions
for Hebrew Rehabilitation Center
Enter via the driveway on Walter Street, and park in the “upper” parking lot, in front of the building's main entrance.
This is the entrance that google maps directs you to if you type in “Hebrew SeniorLife.” You will see an awning and sliding door which is the upper entrance, and someone from the security staff will be there to direct people to the synagogue. If you make your way to the lower entrance or parking lot by accident, that's OK! You can park down there as well, and staff at that door will help you sign in and direct you to the synagogue.
