I love the way Cantor Gustavo included the children by having them think and share what they are thankful for. The videos of the families playing and dancing with apples was so fun to watch. It was also helpful to have a separate location and activity for the much younger kids going on simultaneously.

Shana Tova! I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed the family service yesterday ... It was very uplifting and moving, and I especially enjoyed the music and the video of the children singing. Thank you to everyone at CTI for making the high holidays (and all holidays) so special for all of us.

We wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed the musical service in the tent today and yesterday. Cantor Gustavo led a wonderfully meaningful and special service that was perfect for all ages. Even our 2-year-old son was very engaged and loved dancing along to the music. Both my husband and I have always gone to the temple on Rosh Hashanah, but neither of us has ever experienced such a service. We both had huge smiles on our faces throughout and thoroughly enjoyed both the live singing, cellist, and pianist as well as the extremely professional videos. We can't wait for next year and hope that this new tradition grows every year.

... my family thoroughly enjoyed the services of this Rosh Hashanah. The family ceremonies under the tent were the best I have been a part of for the past few years. The way the tent was set up horizontally allowed everyone to get a view of the bima and the introduction of musical instruments was an absolute delight. The music was beautiful and the families were so engaged! Furthermore, the TVs that had the prayers on the screens were extremely helpful for us to follow.   Also wanted to let you know that Tashlich Services was a really fun, joyous ceremony. The pianist was fantastic, as well as all the dancing while celebrating with our community was so much fun! Thanks again for creating this amazing experience for us. Happy New Year!

My family's experiences at this temple have been wonderful. They stood by my side and guided me through the loss and burial of my Mother-in-law, the cantor taught my son to ride a bike, they hired an extra teacher just for my young child who needed support during Hebrew school, they provided outreach to the community at large, and I became involved in giving back to the community, they counseled me and offered unlimited support during my divorce, they offered an open door of consistent comfort, counsel, and kindness. This is what religion should provide people with wherever they are on their spiritual journey...a sanctuary. Congregation Tifereth Israel is where your religious and spiritual needs are always met.

Went last minute for the High Holidays and was welcomed with open arms. Hidden gem of a place with a fantastic Rabbi and Cantor. Great service and warm congregation. Highly recommend!
