Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur

The Shir Tikvah community and friends gather at Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur to take a personal and communal inventory of the past year and to envision the next. Services are a moving blend of prayer, contemplation, and remembrance, woven together with music—our cantor's soulful chant, our choir, members who are talented vocal and instrumental soloists, and the entire congregation singing as one. Our largest community services and children's services are held at other local venues to accommodate large turnouts. (Aleph services are geared to children 5 and under; Kehillah services are for families with kids ages 6-10).
