Ahead@SWFSThe High Holy Days begin on the evening of Wednesday September 8. A packet with information for inclusion in our annual Yizkor book, a prayerbook order form, acquiring guest tickets and arranging childcare has been mailed to all members in good standing. You can also download the packet here. Please return your forms as soon as possible. Tickets will be mailed the second half of August. SWFS offers creative, inspiring services, along with innovative holiday programming for Tots and Families. Members in good standing are entitled to free seating for the High Holy Days. In accordance with the historic, egalitarian principles of SWFS, there are no reserved seats. Because of our limited seating, we regret that we cannot make available tickets for the general community on the first evening and the first day but we have a limited number of seats for members' out-of-town relatives at a nominal charge. Non-members are encouraged to consider joining the congregation. Information is available by calling (212) 877-4050 x 223, or info@swfs.org. Our High Holy Day services on the second day of the holiday, Friday, September 10, are free and open to the public. Rabbi Ammiel Hirsch will lead an Adult Study session at 9:30 am and our High Holy Day Experience "Storah Telling" will begin at 11:15 and is open to all ages. At 12:15 on Friday, we will hold brief Closing Prayers and sound the Shofar. All are very welcome to join us. If you can help a neighbor come to services, or if you are yourself in need of assistance to attend, please call (212) 877-4050 ext. 244. |
