HHD Alt Service 5771
Congregation B’nai Tikvah offers an off-site Alternative High Holy Day service, where families of multiple generations have the opportunity to worship together in a warm, informal setting.
Stories, explanations of key High Holiday concepts and prayers, and singing with musical accompaniment are included in this participatory venue for members and non-members alike, as the service is open to the community and is free of charge. Reservations are required.
The service will begin at 9:00 am, and will end at approximately 11:30 am.
To attend, participants need to register online in advance of those days in order to receive their tickets (which are free).
Tickets will be mailed prior to the Holidays on a first come first serve basis.
B'nai Tikvah's Family Tot Program includes a service for young families and their preschool children.

Bring your children to B’nai Tikvah’s Yom Kippur afternoon program. When Yizkor begins and continuing to the end of Yom Kippur, children will sing songs and recite Yom Kippur prayers, learn the story of Jonah and participate in other educational activities.
The program will conclude with the children marching with lighted glowsticks into the Main Sanctuary for the concluding Havdalah service. Following the final blast of the Shofar, we will “break the fast” together in the lobby with cake and juice.
