Rosh Hashanah Day 1
Tuesday, September 23
Tree of Life Service 8:30 a.m.
followed by family activities on the patio
(In-person and virtual options available)
Our Tree of Life family service features the music of Cantor Elana and the High Holy Days Ensemble. This family-focused service caters to our K-5th grade children’s attention span, lasts no longer than one-and-a-half hours, yet still includes the important and meaningful liturgy of the High Holy Days that inspires our minds and moves our hearts. This multi-generational service will capture the attention of adults and children alike, with a participatory Torah reading and a sermon-story that will touch congregants of all ages.
Join us at 10:00 a.m. for family activities on the patio with holiday snacks.
Adult Service 11:00 a.m.
(In-person and virtual options available)
The late morning Adult Service includes meaningful liturgy, music, Torah, Haftarah, and a sermon for the High Holy Days. This service will offer adults and teen members an opportunity to worship in a setting conducive to personal and spiritual introspection.
Those joining at home can follow the service with this virtual prayer book on a second device (i.e. tablet, phone, etc.)
You can download in advance or open at service time.
Please note that while most slides in the virtual prayer book correspond to the page numbers called by the clergy during the service, there may be an occasional prayer with a page number that does not align with the live service. Thanks for your patience and apologies for any inconvenience
Rosh Hashanah Family Jam Tots Service 4:00 p.m.
(In-person only)
Join us for a service filled with songs and stories designed for families with toddlers and preschoolers, celebrating the “Birthday of the World”. The Rosh Hashanah Tots Service includes a children’s art activity, a holiday snack, and playtime on the playground.
