The High Holidays at Havurat Shalom are a wonderful, intense, prayerful experience. They are also free! Everyone is welcome!
This year’s Rosh Hashanah services will be a combination of indoors and outdoors, for those who come in person, with the services for the first day of Rosh Hashanah also available via Zoom. In person services will be led from inside, with masks optional*. There will also be a tent in the backyard, with a speaker piping out the service, for those who don’t want to be indoors. All seating is first come, first served.
(*If the big hospitals in Boston respond to changing covid prevalence rates by requiring masking, then the Havurah will also require masking inside.)
Yom Kippur services will be in person in tents in the backyard as well as on Zoom. Seating is first come, first served.
