If you’ve never been to High Holy Days before:

Consider coming to S’lichot on Saturday evening, September 4th, at 10 pm. This short, moving service introduces the High Holy themes in a simpler setting. A film and discussion program at 8 pm precedes the service.

Looking for a change of pace?

Join us at the Circle Group Area at Vasona Park for outdoor informal Shabbat Morning Services followed by Tashlich and a picnic lunch on Saturday, September 11th, beginning at 10:30 am.

The Holy Days don’t end with Yom Kippur.

Join us for Sukkot services and meals in the Sukkah, September 24th – 29th and then for one of the most fun services of the whole year — Simchat Torah, Wednesday, September 29th at 7:15 pm with the Joel Nelson Band.

Order extra prayerbooks and tickets from the Temple office. Security considerations require us to ask you to present your tickets to the ushers for each service.
