Simchat Torah celebration

  • Temple Hillel B'nai Torah 120 Corey Street West Roxbury MA 02126 (map)

We combine the joy of celebrating Torah with the remembrance of Yizkor in our integrated Shemini Atzeret/Simchat Torah service. Dance with a Torah, sing Hallel with our array of percussion instruments, welcome the rainy season, and more.

 Temple Hillel B'nai Torah is very excited for this weekend! The HBT Band will be featuring Forbes Graham on trumpet and Jeff Klepper on guitar! Each hakafah (dance circle) will have a theme - we guarantee that there will be at least one theme for you! Come celebrate Simchat Torah with us!

All ages have the opportunity to dance with Torah scrolls and plush Torahs. Come see the entire Torah unscrolled in our spacious sanctuary!

Pumpkins return to the temple for Sukkot, and you can win one to take home as a prize!

Help raise funds for our beloved temple and decorate your doorstep with a giant pumpkin. Or join the raffle to win a squash, a small pumpkin, or corncobs. 

Prizes will be awarded after dancing with the Torah scrolls on Simchat Torah night, Saturday, October 7, 5:30pm - 7:30pm.
