High Holidays

HIGH HOLIDAYS 2011/5772

Shalom! Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur are fast approaching. Rabbi Joshua Waxman will be leading our High Holy day services this year.   Lori Rubin, Education Director, is once again planning our children and teen programming. The teen and family services that have been so well received in the past, will of course continue this year. We are very excited to continue this enhancement to our high holiday observance.

Other "extras" will include the adult study havurah's engaging discussion series the morning of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, tashlich following Rosh Hashanah services, and of course, spiritually fulfilling services in the main sanctuary.

This year, we are moving all our services to our beautiful building in Fort Washington.  Please note that there are some restrictions for parking, and there is an attachment below with all our parking information.

Make our house your home for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur
We cordially invite the community to join us for High Holiday services. Ticket cost can be applied to your first year membership - print and mail the ticket order form attached below. For more information: call 215-283-0276 or email .
