High Holy Days

We can't wait to see you at Beth Emeth for the High Holy Days. 

For security reasons, tickets are required for entry into the Temple. All tickets this year are in the form of a name badge we hope you will wear. If you choose not to wear it, the name badge is still required to be shown for entry. Children under 10 do not require a name badge ticket. 

Shana tova!

Click the button below to request tickets, RSVP as not attending this year, sign up for Children's Programming, or request a High Holy Day Prayer Book through your member account. Thank you!
