High Holy Days 2025/5786

We are honored to gather as a community for the High Holy Days, a time of prayer, reflection, and renewal. Services will be held with Mishkan HaNefesh, our beautiful Machzorim, made possible through your generosity during a past High Holy Day fundraiser. We are proud to continue offering our services without the need for tickets, ensuring that anyone who wishes to join us feels welcome.

High Holiday Food Drive
As part of our observance, we invite you to participate in our annual High Holiday Food Drive. Please bring non-perishable items to services so we can support the food bank and help care for neighbors in need.

Special Memorial Service
In addition to our regular High Holy Day services, we will hold a special service on October 7 to remember the lives lost in the attack on Israel and to pray for those still held hostage two years later.

We look forward to sharing these sacred days with you.
