High Holy Days 2026/5787
at Congregation Beth El
The High Holy Days are early this year, beginning September 11! The full calendar of Beth El services and celebrations is below.
​
All attendees will be required to have a High Holy Days Pass in order to enter the synagogue, for security purposes. There will be two types of Passes:
​
-
Member Pass for MEMBERS who have joined or renewed for the 2026-27 Membership Year
A physical Member Pass will be mailed to all current members' postal address, and a digital version will be emailed.
If you have not yet joined or renewed your membership, please do so by August 28 to be included in the physical mailing. Your considerate adherence to the deadline is a great help during this busy season for staff - thank you!
​​
-
Guest Pass for NON-MEMBERS, who are always welcome to worship with us free of charge, but must register
