We hope you, your children or grandchildren can join in our engaging, interactive, and musical services while being able to look up at the rabbi, musical soloist, and projected prayer book with our “Visual T’filah.” Children’s Services for both Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur will begin at 3:00 p.m. on the afternoon of the holiday. Masks are required for all and social distancing will be followed. Vaccination is not required for this service.
