2011 High Holidays 5772

 

The Jewish New Year is less than a week away! Rosh HaShannah begins Wednesday evening, September 28th, and ends Friday night, September 30th. Yom Kippur begins Friday evening, October 7th, and ends Saturday night, October 8th.

 

This year, we will be striving to assemble together as a community and celebrate the High Holidays in a manner that is respectful and welcoming to congregants of all levels and types of observance. The services will be conducted in Hebrew and will include selected portions to be read in English. As an inclusive service, we hope to fulfil the requirement of having at least ten men and ten women to complete a quorum. Our inclusive service will provide opportunity for both men and women interested in actively participating in readings, open/close the ark, and aliyahs (call up to the Torah).

 

Below is our schedule for the High Holidays. We hope to begin all services on time with a quorum. Please note that morning service times are approximates based on previous years. The morning service times may also change depending on if we have a quorum. An email will be sent right before the holiday and may reflect any last-minute changes to the schedule.
