Shomrei High Holy Day Schedule

Congregation Shomrei Emunah | view in browser

Visitors and Guests Welcome, No Charge

These are the days when all doors are open: the doors of prayer, song, and introspection, of family, friendship and community, of acceptance and forgiveness and love. This year's High Holy Days services will feature our rabbi, Julie Roth, together with our student rabbi, Lily Lucey, and our guest prayer leader Talia Lakritz.

Our highly-musical, streamlined, services will infuse the tradition and spirit of the High Holy Days with new energy. Highlights include intergenerational participation from across our community and a spirited Musaf featuring communal singing.
