Jewish High Holiday Services in South Brunswick
Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur services in the township.

In anticipation of the upcoming Jewish New Year (Sept. 17 and 18), Chabad of South Brunswick has announced its High Holiday Services schedule.
This will be the eleventh year of Services for this growing organization. They will be "warm, friendly and traditional," according to Chabad's Executive Director, Rabbi Levi Azimov. Organizers say that last year's services were a phenomenal success, with large crowds in attendance.
Unlike many congregations, membership is not required to join. All are welcome, free of charge, regardless of background or affiliation.

In addition, a special children's program will accompany the adult Services. All prayers will combine the original Hebrew, as well as translated English. This, coupled with modern Jewish melodies, meaningful insights, humor and an easy to read prayer book translation, will make this year’s High Holidays an enjoyable and meaningful experience.
"According to Tradition, at the New Year the Doors of Heaven are open; G-d accepts all prayers, from anyone," explains the Rabbi. "The least we can do is open our doors as well, to the entire community."
