Special High Holiday 2020 Info and Options
This year will be unlike any other. Our mission is to be here for you, and provide you with the most meaningful, authentic and uplifting High Holiday experience possible. To achieve this we will be taking precautions for everyone's safety and giving you a few options:
Traditional High Holiday Services: Services will be held in a outdoor tent. It will be a socially distanced, but spiritually uplifting holiday service. There will be limited, socially-distanced seats available. You must reserve a seat for each service you plan to attend in person. Masks will be required.
Outdoor Shofar Blowing: On the
the second day of Rosh Hashana we will be holding a 20 minute outdoor service that will include a Shofar Blowing, several selected prayers, and Tashlich services at the lake.
Spiritual Seats: For those who have always attended Holiday Services but will be unable to attend in person; we are offering you the option to still be part of our service. By purchasing your Spiritual Seats, the Chazzan will include your names in the prayers, and you will be helping support Chabad, thereby giving you the sense of belonging and the powerful Divine merit of Holiday attendance.
Holiday Gift : We will be offering a taste of the Holidays with a give-away of home made honey cake, apples and honey, plus a beautifully printed Holiday Guide of Prayers and Insights that you will be able to use for your own home-bound Holiday Service.
Pre-Holiday Classes & Inspiration: We will be offering classes and DIY training to inspire your own prayers at home.
The two-day holiday of Rosh Hashanah is the head of the Jewish year, the time when G‑d reinvests Himself in creation as we crown Him king of the universe through prayer, shofar blasts, and celebration. A week later, the High Holidays reach their crescendo with Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement). Like angels, we neither eat nor drink for 25 hours. Dressed in white, we pray in the synagogue—united as one people, children of One Father.
