Congregation Sinai of Central Florida plans to observe the Jewish High Holidays with special services. Congregation Sinai has been serving the Jewish Community of Central Florida since 2003. This year, Congregation Sinai will share special prayer sessions with members and non-members via virtual services.

High Holy Days: Rosh Hashanah is the Jewish New Year holiday. It is a time for rejoicing as well as for serious introspection. It is a time to celebrate the completion of another year while taking stock of one’s life. These two days of Rosh Hashanah usher in the Ten Days of Repentance. These Ten Days of Awe culminate on the major fast day of Yom Kippur, also known as the Day of Atonement. The shofar which is a ram’s horn that sounds like a trumpet is sounded as a special wake-up call to prepare for the Tishrei holidays. Rosh Hashanah is respected as the Day of Judgment for our Books of Life and Death; which are then sealed for us on Yom Kippur. Non-members will be requested to make a deposit for High Holiday prayer books.
