High Holiday Welcome Program Offers Free Seats to New Year Services

The Greater Miami Jewish Federation and the Rabbinical Association of Greater Miami, together with more than 30 participating synagogues, are offering free seating to unaffiliated members of our community through the High Holiday Welcome Program. If you have not already made plans to attend Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur services, we encourage you to join a synagogue. But if you can’t do so in time for the holidays, you may attend services at one of the synagogues where we have arranged for a limited number of individual seats at no charge. The program is made possible by donations to the Annual Greater Miami Jewish Federation/UJA Campaign. Registration opens at noon on Tuesday, September 6. Phone registrations may be made by calling 305.373.SEAT (7328) through Friday, September 16 at 4 p.m. Online registrations may be made here through Sunday September 18. All denominations of observance are welcome. Advance reservations are required. May 5783 be a sweet year for you and your family, full of peace and happiness.
