Welcome to High Holy Days 5784 (2023-2024)
The New Year, 5784, is approaching and we are looking forward to seeing you in person on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Rosh Hashana begins Friday evening, September 15. Selichot service and program will be Saturday, September 9, beginning at 9pm. We look forward to sharing a spiritually rewarding High Holiday experience together.
We will be having Torah for Tots and Junior Congregation, in the gym, as in past years. The schedule is as follows:
Torah for Tots 10-10:30am on September 16 & 17 (both days of Rosh Hashanah) and October 5 (Yom Kippur)

(There is no registration required for Junior Congregation. Children under the age of 7 must be accompanied by an adult.)
We understand that not everyone will feel comfortable attending in-person services. Therefore, services will be streamed and will also be available on Zoom.
