We at Chabad of Midtown Manhattan join you in hope and prayer as together we approach the new Jewish year. Together we'll listen to the call of the Shofar, taste the sweetness of the Apple-and-Honey, recommit to G‑d on Yom Kippur. Join us this year to celebrate together in our synagogue, in our community—and with your pre-holiday preparation online.
Wishing you a happy & sweet New Year!
ROSH HASHANA | October 2-4, 2024
YOM KIPPUR | October 11-12, 2024
The two-day holiday of Rosh Hashanah is the head of the Jewish year, the time when G‑d reinvests Himself in creation as we crown Him king of the universe through prayer, shofar blasts, and celebration. A week later, the High Holidays reach their crescendo with Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement). Like angels, we neither eat nor drink for 25 hours. Dressed in white, we pray in the synagogue—united as one people, children of One Father.
