As many of you are aware, we have transitioned to ShulCloud, a user-friendly portal that allows our congregants to access and update their account information and yahrzeits, register for programming, pay dues, make donations, and more.

To access ShulCloud, please visit: https://tbebloomfieldhills.shulcloud.com/

If you haven't accessed ShulCloud, we have provided step-by-step instructions below. We encourage you to take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the platform so you can easily submit your names for this year's memorial book, become a High Holiday Angel, or purchase guest tickets.

Every member already has an account, and the following steps will guide you in setting up your account access and creating a password:

Click on the following link: https://tbebloomfieldhills.shulcloud.com/
Select "My Account."
Choose "Edit My Profile" and set a password for your account.

Once you have set up your password, you can log in anytime by clicking on "Login" in the upper right corner of the website.

After completing the account setup, please ensure that the information in your profile is accurate and complete.

We continue with connecting to our Elul theme of fashion and sustainability by an interview and tour with fashion designer and local Jewish business owner, Olivia Newman. 

This session is on Facebook Live. Rabbi Brudney will interview Ms. Newman and she will take us on a tour of her home workshop of Polly Lava. 

Polly Lava is a virtual store selling uniquely upcycled, reworked, and thrifted vintage clothes carefully curated from the 60's through the early 2000's.

The last program of our Elul series is Selichot: Syncing Inner Intentions and Outer Appearances.

This is our final official chance for reflection and engagement before the High Holidays begin!

Join us for an interactive workshop led by Rachael Renae, local business owner and self-proclaimed "enthusiastic style gal" who will walk us through syncing our inner intentions with our outside appearances for the new year. 

This program will begin with light refreshments, continue with learning with Ms. Renae, and conclude with a brief and meaningful Selichot service featuring the changing of our Torah mantles from year-round covers to High Holiday white!
