High Holidays, 2010

A directory of local synagogues is included on this website under "Directory."  All of them would be delighted to meet you as a guest this Rosh HaShana or Yom Kippur.  Several local synagogues are offering very inexpensive admission tickets.  At least four synagogues are opening their doors for free:  Congregation Mount Sinai (Jersey City Heights - Traditional), Congregation Shaare Zedek (West New York - Orthodox), Congregation B'nai Jacob (Jersey City - Conservative) and Temple Emanu-el (Bayonne - Conservative).  Consult the synagogue directory on this website for contact information.

Our annual "Hanukkah on the Hudson" event took place on Thursday, Dec 17 and was quite a success!  Over 100 peoplecame to Temple Beth-El in Jersey City for a night of dining, dancing, and celebrating!  Singer-songwriter Eric Komar provided the entertainment accompanied by percussionist "Akiva the Believer."  Refreshments were provided by Jerusalem Restaurant of Livingston, NJ.  To look at pictures from the event, please click here or click on the PHOTO section of the website.
