Rosh Hashanah, This Monday Night!
|
We here at J'Burgh want to make sure you have a sweet new year. For a lot of us this means celebrating Rosh Hashanah with our friends and loved ones. Sometimes, due to work, school, and any other myriad of circumstances we can't control, this just isn't possible. For this reason J'Burgh is teaming up with our local synagogues to provide you with a meaningful High Holiday experience. If you need a place to go ring in the year 5769, or are just looking for some more information, please e-mail David Katz by noon, this Friday, September 26th.
