The Jewish High Holidays bring a fresh start to a new year, a time for celebration and contemplation. All are welcome to join holiday services in September at Congregation Beth Evergreen, 2981 Bergen Peak Drive in Evergreen to welcome the new Jewish year.
Service leader Rabbi Jamie Arnold, who has served the congregation for 13 years, fosters an inclusive, relaxed environment and expands on the traditional service with thought-provoking, participatory sermons. The congregation will once again sponsor a food drive during the holidays; non-perishable donations are welcome.
No tickets are necessary to attend, but space is limited. Please RSVP so we can ensure we have adequate seating. Reservations may be made online. Current members do not need to make reservations.
