High Holidays in Center City Philadelphia (Society Hill)

What are "User-Friendly" Yom Kippur and Rosh Hashanah services ?

Our technical support team consists of Rabbi Yochonon Goldman, Cantor Choni Goldman as well as our host lay leaders who aim to make your High Holidays visit to the Center City, Philadelphia synagogue in Society Hill a truly meaningful experience. They will walk you through the prayers and provide explanations and anecdotes throughout the services.

In addition to the main service, we are offering a new add-on this year: supplementary interactive classes during the morning service which will take place in the lower level sanctuary of our shul, led by our young and dynamic board member, Ari Miller. Services are free of charge and a delicious lunch buffet follows morning services on both days of Rosh Hashanah .  A break-the-fast buffet will follow Yom Kippur services. There is a charge for the meals (see below) and reservations are required.

Services are 100% free, but for security purposes please complete our 1 minute registration form.

We look forward to personally welcoming you to B’nai Abraham!
