changes every year,
depending on what
the congregants ask
for, said Rabbi
Harold Loss, who
has been a rabbi at
Temple Israel for 27
years. "Our goal is to
allow people to
choose."

Israel depends on the number
of congregants who express
interest. Special consideration
is granted to non-members
who wish to pray, Loss said,
but the administrative offices
should be contacted.
Temple Kol Ami in West
Bloomfield has offered alterna-
tive morning Rosh Hashanah and Kol
Nidre services, featuring a "less for-
mal" tone, with guitar music and
more dialogue between the rabbi and
the congregation, said Rabbi Norman
Roman, Kol Ami's rabbi since 1986.
Services for the second day of
Rosh Hashanah have been offered at
no charge to both members and non-
members of Kol Ami since last year.
Just bring a prayer book, he said.
Temple Shir Shalom in West
Bloomfield has added a Selichot service
in the last three years and added a
Tashlich service in the last four years,
said Rabbi Dannel Schwartz, rabbi at
Shir Shalom since it opened in 1988.
The morning Rosh Hashanah ser-
vices are more traditional than the
evening services are, he said.
More verses read from the Torah
and more responsive reading in the
morning adds about 10 to 15 minutes
to the service.

adds "a nice twist," Schwartz said.
For the past six years, families of
Congregation Shir Tilwah have cele-
brated the High Holy Days by attend-
ing services at a rented space in a
Mormon church.
Having moyed into a new shul on
Northfield Parkway in Troy six
months ago, the congregation is look-
ing forward to their new home, said
Rabbi Arnie Sleutelberg leader for 10
years.
Most of the services will not
change, he said. "We've rearranged
them slightly."
The "break the fast" will still be
held at sundown, but no longer at var-
ious congregants' homes, he said.
A dozen members will still make
the yearly trip to the Georgian
Bloomfield retirement home in
Bloomfield Hills to hold a short, after-
noon service on the second day of
Rosh Hashanah for the dozen or so
Jewish residents who live there,
Sleutelberg said. 111
