High Holidays 2023/5784
Beit Am is planning our customary schedule of in-person High Holiday services, with Zoom access for those who prefer to join us virtually. High Holiday services Zoom links are published in the weekly What’s Up bulletin, as well as on the members only side of the website calendar. Beit Am’s High Holiday services are open to all our members and their guests. No tickets or advanced registration is required. We extend a special invitation to local college students, faculty, and staff to attend our High Holiday activities. Non-members may contact the Beit Am office for more information about attending services.
Overflow parking on Erev Rosh Hashanah and first day Rosh Hashanah services will be available at the LDS church parking lot. Please follow signs and our parking lot volunteers to make sure everybody is able to navigate the parking lot safely.
On the second day of Rosh Hashanah, the church lot will not be available to Beit Am. We don’t anticipate the Beit Am lot will fill up, but you are able to carpool or take alternative transportation, that will help with parking availability.
More details about High Holiday programming and volunteer needs will follow by email as we get closer to the holidays. Please review Beit Am’s current guidelines at https://beitam.org/vba7/hybridservices to protect the health of our members and guests.
During the lead up to High Holidays and Yom Kippur, if you want to hear the shofar, visit Hear the Shofar!
All services (except Tashlich) are at Beit Am.
