Where to Worship for the High Holidays

The High Holidays are upon us – with Erev Rosh Hashanah on September 25 and Kol Nidre on October 4, 2022. Those of you who belong to a synagogue have likely already received your tickets to services and made plans to worship and celebrate with family and friends.

For those who are not members of a local congregation, the High Holidays offer a good time to visit local synagogues, attend services and see if you would like to join.

Many invite the community at large to worship and here are details from local congregations with open door policies for certain services.

Here’s where to go:

Bet Am Shalom is a joyful, spiritual congregation; we warmly welcome all generations and religious backgrounds, including interfaith families, empty nesters, singles, LGBTQ+, the scholarly and observant, and those new to Judaism.

They are bound together by a shared belief in a thoughtful and progressive approach to Judaism. With a deep respect for tradition, we seek to evolve as the world around us evolves. The creative spirit of our members fuels our community as together we learn, share lifecycle events, support each other and commit to Tikkun Olam (repairing the world). Join them! Open to all – Registration required.
