Celebrate Simchat Torah Temple Beth Sholom
Join us as we celebrate Simchat Torah and mark the completion of Devarim (Deuteronomy) and the beginning of Bereshit (Genesis), bringing our annual Torah reading cycle full circle.
Enjoy singing, dancing, and as many hakafot as needed so that everyone has the opportunity to dance with a Torah scroll. Everyone will also have the opportunity to receive an aliyah.
Sunday, October 4 at 10:00 AM
This is an all-ages service, so bring the whole family! Children are invited to join in the celebration and dance with our mini Torah scrolls.
Come celebrate this joyful moment with our TBS community as we begin the Torah anew.

Lifecycle Events
Temple Beth Sholom takes great honor in being a place where our Conservative Congregation can retrieve life cycle assistance in times of joy and sorrow. Our members enjoy the services of Rabbi Rosenstein, who is available to officiate at life cycle events and offer rabbinical counseling within the frames work of Jewish laws and customs.
Rabbi Rosenstein is always available to assist with the following:
Brit Milah
The symbol of the covenant (partnership) with G-d is the B’rit Milah, or bris. On the 8th day of life, a Jewish boy is initiated into this covenant with God and Jewish people through ritual circumcision.
Weddings
Temecula is a terrific location for a Jewish wedding. All that is necessary is a Chuppah (Jewish wedding canopy) and a rabbi. Rabbi Rosenstein is available to perform Jewish and some Jewish inter-faith wedding ceremonies.
Funerals
When the need arises upon the death of a loved one, Temple Beth Sholom is here to help. Burying our dead is one of the most important mitzvot we are obligated to fulfill. There are many laws and customs dating back thousands of years, as well as modern customs that need to be understood by the family of the deceased. Rabbi Rosenstein is available to help families navigate the path of mourning, from the time of hearing of the death, through the week of Shiva (the first 7 days post funeral).
When a young man or woman has completed their initial course of study, they are prepared to enter the full Jewish community. This process is culminated with the person being called to the Torah for the first time and participating in leading the service and chanting a portion of the Torah reading of the week and chanting of the Haftorah.
Many adults who have never had a B’nai Mitzvah choose to do so later in life.
We offer individual, customized curriculum and scheduling based upon each family’s situation. We also offer training for an adult B’nai Mitzah.
Baby Naming
Traditionally, after a baby girl is born, her father would go to the synagogue on Shabbat morning and publicly announce her Hebrew name, after being called to the Torah for an Aliyah.
But now, many families have a ceremony called a B’rit Bat, or a B’rit Chyim, which is a baby naming ceremony involving both parents. This ceremony can occur at home or at the Temple where the baby receives her Hebrew name.
Rabbi Rosenstein is available to help.
Chanukat Ha Bayit
Traditionally, Jewish homes have a mezuzah affixed to the front door of their home. This comes from the commandment, which reads; “…and inscribe them (the words of the Sh’ma) upon the doorposts of your homes and upon your gates” (Deuteronomy). Rabbi Rosenstein is available to officiate at a Chanukat Ha Bayit, a dedication of the home where the mezuzah is affixed.
This ceremony is often included as part of a Jewish house warming party.
