High Holy Day Outreach 2020
Friendship Circle High Holy Day Outreach
September 2020
Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, begins at sundown Friday, September 18, and Yom Kippur begins with Kol Nidre on Sunday evening, September 27th. Thanks to the generous support of the Jewish Community Federation of San Francisco, the Peninsula, Marin and Sonoma Counties, Friendship Circle is reaching out to residential living communities in an effort to help them serve their Jewish residents during the High Holy Days again this year.
While we cannot visit everyone in person this year, we will be hosting three Friendship Circle, High Holy Day Monday Morning, Zoom programs. See page 1 of the newsletter HERE.
We are also distributing pre-recorded High Holy Day Youtube videos to allow you to celebrate the High Holy Days at your leisure.
For more information, to RSVP for a Friendship Circle Monday Morning Zoom program, or to request information on how to celebrate the High Holy Days at your facility, please contact Carol King at carolk@jccsoco.org or (707) 528-1182.
