- Sign up in May for June-August: one time per person set-up/clean up
- Sign up in August for September-January: two times per person set-up/clean up
Annual meeting sign ups will be hard copy. After the annual meeting you can sign up online or by e-mailing koheletadmin@gmail.com.
At the annual meeting you can also sign up for committees as well as d’vrei Torah, laining Torah, and leading services.

Proverbs 2 ( from Solomon to his son)
Accept my words and treasure my commandments.
Be attentive to wisdom and open to clarification.
Call out to understanding and discipline.
Seek it as you do silver and your search for treasure.
You will then attain knowledge of G-d.
