The Hebrew Congregation of Somers wants to cordially invite you to attend our High Holiday Services for Rosh Hashanah 5785 and Yom Kippur this year at our synagogue.
In addition to our inspirational clergy, Rabbis Shoshana Leis and Ben Newman, we are fortunate to have obtained the services of the well-known and highly regarded Cantorial vocalist, Howard Kilik, to provide the vocal and musical liturgical accompaniment to the services.
Particularly, in light of the turbulent times the Jewish Community finds us in, we hope that you will all be able to attend and support through your presence what promises to be a moving and stirring religious community experience. There will be a Break-fast pot-luck after the completion of the Yom Kippur Service. Wishing you all a good and sweet year.
Our Services, as in the past. are free to members and guests, however all guests must be pre-registered to be allowed admittance both in-person and over Zoom.
