HIGH HOLIDAY 5786 APPEAL
This year, our goal is simple yet powerful: 100% participation in the Kol Nidre Appeal. Every member, every gift, every act of support matters. Whether it’s $18, $180, or more, your contribution is a statement that you believe in the future of Synagogue Emanu-El.
Now more than ever, we rely on one another to sustain the synagogue that sustains us. Your gift helps provide inspiring worship, engaging learning for all ages, and a community that is here in times of joy and in times of need.
Please join us in reaching full participation. When every member gives, we all share in the blessing of keeping our congregation strong.
SEEK and Childcare
SEEK
We are excited for this year's High Holidays SEEK services, Synagogue Emanu-El's youth services and programing this year! Our SEEK program is designed to give everyone an age appropriate High Holiday experience filled with prayer, discussion, activities, and visits from the rabbi!
Reservations are not required for SEEK which will begin at 10:30am. The doors will be labeled to indicate the location to drop off your child(ren).
Please pick your children up from SEEK after the Rabbi’s sermon/Yizkor.
Jr. Congregation (K-2) and (3-5)
Teen Talk (6-8)
*Children may participate in the SEEK program, or they may choose to remain in the sanctuary with you - both are wonderful options. Please make sure you talk about the options with your child/children before the High Holidays so they know where they will be going. Children are not permitted to be unattended in the hallways or lobbies. They must be in SEEK or in the sanctuary with their families.
Babysitting
Babysitting will be available for children 12 months to pre-K beginning at 10am. Advanced registration is required for all children in babysitting to ensure a safe environment for all. Babysitting will take place in the double classroom. Snacks will be provided. Babysitters do not change diapers; we will find you if needed.
The cost is $20 per child, per day. Once you have dropped off your child/children kindly leave the babysitting room. The babysitting space is for children ages 12 months- pre-K and staff only.
Babysitting will be available on Kol Nidre. Please know that during this sacred service, entrance into the sanctuary is limited, and parents should minimize leaving to check on their children.
Mother's Room Available
During all services, a separate room will be provided for nursing mothers and to allow for feeding and changing. This room does not have staff. Parents are required to remain with their children.
Tickets
High Holiday tickets will be mailed to all members in good standing. If you would like additional seating, see options below.
