High Holidays

Please join our community for prayer, song, and introspection as we celebrate these holiest days of the Jewish year.  We never charge tickets for the High Holidays, however, we do encourage you to make a donation, according to your ability.

Our vision for Tzedek v’Shalom for these holy days and beyond is that we welcome everyone into our community regardless of one’s background or finances.  Especially during these difficult economic times, we think it is important that we take strength in our diversity and in the power of community.

If you are interested in joining us, please contact Carolyn Bacher at 215-860-3565or carojoel@comcast.net.
