Synagogues gear up for the High Holy Days
Summer is winding down and we are gearing up for the High Holy Days. Our thoughts turn to the start of school and the bright promise of the Jewish New Year!
The Jewish Alliance of Greater Rhode Island is once again partnering with synagogues throughout Rhode Island and southeastern Massachusetts to provide eligible families with tickets to High Holy Day services. Eligible individuals/families must not be a member of a participating synagogue and cannot have been a member of a synagogue they wish to attend for the past four years.
The program is free and the deadline to contact the Jewish Alliance for tickets is Aug. 29 at 3 p.m. For tickets, call 401-421-4111, ext. 182.
Note: There are a number of synagogues in Rhode Island that do not require tickets for entry to their High Holy Day services this year. These include Congregation Beth Sholom – $75 suggested donation (Providence), Congregation Sha’arei Tefilla (Providence), Newport Havurah (Newport), Temple Habonim (Barrington) Temple Shalom (Middletown) and United Brothers (Bristol) as well as Chabad of West Bay (Warwick) and Chabad of Barrington. Please note that Temple Habonim requires neither tickets nor prior communication before services and has an “open-door” policy.
The Jewish Voice does not list information regarding specific services and schedules. Below is a list of all the synagogues, temples and congregational groups known to us, along with contact information that is current as we know it. Some are participating in the High Holy Day initiative and some are not.
For more information on service schedules, please contact the synagogues directly or visit their websites.
