Tickets are now a thing of the past at Temple Etz Chaim. Instead, anyone who wants to attend services with us, whether members or not, will be issued an invitation. And there is no charge for that invitation. The prophet Isaiah said, "My house shall be called a house of prayer for all people." We want to make that a reality.
To be part of our High Holy Day services (download schedule), simply provide the Temple office the names of those who will be attending, and we will send you invitations. It’s as simple as that. Of course, it does still take money to make our Temple function, and we would be grateful for any contribution you might want to give. But in any case, let us know and come join us as we create a worshiping community during these Days of Awe.

Temple Etz Chaim in Franklin, MA, is embarking on a new program to meet the needs of today’s teenagers. Called Haverim (Friends), to capture the idea of getting together around a mutual interest, this program will involve 4 modules of 3 sessions each, each module focusing on a different topic. This year our plan is to present the following topics: the Media, Body and Soul, SciTech and The Jewish Palate (Cooking) or Music. Modules will be taught by specialists in each area as much as possible.
A student can join the yearlong program and be a Haverim “fellow”, in which case they can participate in a beginning and end of year get together, as well as some holiday gatherings. But they do not need to join the whole program to participate! They are welcome to come to a particular module of interest! Meet-up times will be on scheduled Tuesdays throughout the year from 6:30-8:30.
For more information and the cost of participation, please contact Hana Berman.
