High Holidays
at Chabad of Silver Spring
Message from the Rabbi
We at Chabad of Silver Spring join you in hope and prayer as together we approach the new Jewish year of 5782.
Together we'll listen to the call of the Shofar, taste the sweetness of the Apple-and-Honey, recommit to G‑d on Yom Kippur.
We are hosting Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur services indoors at 7:00 am and 9:00 am and outdoors at 9:00 am. 
We have a special Yizkor page for Yom Kippur this year with options for submitting names to be read in shul during Yizkor and donating in memory of a loved one.
For 5782, High Holidays seat reservations are open to shul members only until August 10 and then will be open to the general public.
Wishing you a happy and sweet New Year!

Tashlich
In the late afternoon of Rosh Hashana, the entire community joins together in a proud processional for the observance of Tashlich. Representing the themes of renewal and rejuvenation, this tradition also has a way of demonstrating a spirit of communal solidarity as young and old march and sing together while en route to perform a fascinating mitzvah.
Yizkor Yizkor

Yizkor is observed on Yom Kippur in memory of loved ones who have passed away. We will have Yizkor services at all of our minyanim on Yom Kippur.
