Find a Synagogue to Call Home for the High Holidays

With Rosh Hashanah just a month away, now is the time to join a synagogue and celebrate the Jewish New Year with your community. In challenging times such as these for Israel and the Jewish people, belonging to a spiritual center can bring solace and a shared sense of unity. If you’d like to become a synagogue member for the High Holidays and beyond, there is a congregation in Miami-Dade County ready to welcome you. The Greater Miami Jewish Federation and the Rabbinical Association of Greater Miami have compiled a directory of area synagogues available here. Select a synagogue and visit their website or call for membership information to make the year 5786 a time of Jewish renewal and connection for you, your family and all Jewish Miami.
