The High Holy Days are the holiest and most important time of the year. This year, we will be gathering on livestream to celebrate together. The fast spread of the COVID Delta variant, even among the vaccinated and children, have us taking the difficult and disappointing step of limiting in-person attendance to only those leading the service. As a community that focuses on caring for each other, we need to make the choices that are difficult and even painful but protect the health and well-being of everyone.
All services will be broadcast online for anyone to use anywhere in the world. To join us online, go to our streaming page or our YouTube channel. No registration is necessary; all are welcome.
We will not be distributing tickets to attend Sanctuary services. Rosh Hashanah Children’s Services followed by Tashlich will be held at Meadow Lake Park with in-person attendance in this outdoor setting. All other services should be accessed via our livestream.
We share in the sadness that COVID will keep us apart physically for our High Holy Days. We will stay connected and come to tomorrow an even stronger and healthier community.
Our Book of Remembrance is an important tradition at RTFH. This booklet contains the names of our loved ones. Sharing these names as a community memorializes them in our collective memories.
This year, the book will be created digitally and will be displayed during services on Yom Kippur day. The digital Book of Remembrance will be available for download on this site.
Creating a digital book allows us to also include photographs. If you would like to submit a picture in honor of a loved one, please either send the picture electronically to services@rtfh.org or upload it below.
Please submit the names you wish to be listed no later than August 27. We would appreciate a minimum donation of $10.00 per name for the listing and a donation of $18 for each photograph you would like to include. Please use the additional donation field on your Book of Remembrance entry for payment for your photo submissions.
