Family Offerings

Our High Holy Days will be filled with an abundance of joy, reflection, and connection. We will worship in person and online, creating a sense of shared time and purpose. Rabbi Joshua Stanton, Cantor Shira Ginsburg, and award-winning musicians will enliven our spirits and open our minds. We will have programs for people of all ages and interests, including some of “The Best Kid-Friendly Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur Celebrations in New York.”

YOUNG FAMILY SERVICE (ages 0-5)

A lively yet intimate service conducted in a sing-a-long format, geared towards families with children ages 0-5. Tots and their parents to join together in celebrating the holidays with songs, prayers, and stories.

FAMILY SERVICE (ages 6-11)

A fun and engaging service geared towards families with children in 1st-5th grades (ages 6-11). The experience is much like a regular service, with many of the traditional prayers as well as readings from the Torah. An excellent opportunity to allow young children to actively participate in a real High Holy Day service that is both age appropriate and very meaningful.
