40 Days & 40 Nights Offers Virtual Programs for the High Holy Days

40 days

While this time of social distancing means we may not be able to gather in the usual ways we have always done for the High Holy Days, the Greater Miami Jewish Federation 40 Days & 40 Nights program is helping Jews find deep, powerful connections with one another. With a full slate of virtual events happening now through Yom Kippur, you can explore Jewish liturgy, music, Torah study and more. These classes and workshops offer opportunities for introspection, reflection and growth during these challenging times. Developed by Miami’s synagogues and Jewish agencies, in partnership with Mishkan Miami, the Rabbinical Association of Greater Miami and Base Miami, the offerings reflect different interests and traditions.
