High Holidays 5786: Adult Services

HHD 2025 Registration

We are excited to offer an array of services, designed to provide opportunities for all congregants!

Please note: Several of our services have limitations based on room size and other factors. Please register as early as possible so we can do our best to accommodate all requests. Seating assignments and honors begin as soon as registration closes. We will more likely confirm your choices if you respond by the due date. All service requests must be submitted no later than Thursday, July 24. All services in the Sanctuary will also be available on live stream.

There are two options for adult services on the three holiday days and Kol Nidre: (1) a clergy-led service in the main sanctuary and (2) the Study Service, which will take place in the Chapel and will be led by Seth Schafler and Rabbi Jennifer Tobenstein with lay participation. Registration will be required for both. There will be reserved and open seating offered in each service, with an upcharge for reserved seats, plus an opportunity to opt for additional seating for extended family in both. Due to the size, location, and format of some services, we may cap some services. Please register early to get the selection and timing of services you wish to attend.

All services require advance registration on ShulCloud (please see the button above).

This year, registration for all services and programs, ushering, volunteer opportunities, and High Holidays Greetings ($18/each) are on the same form.
