These Reform High Holiday services are free to all. The services offer those with a wide range of Jewish background, knowledge and sensibilities -- the opportunity to connect at this special time in the Jewish calendar.
Originally started 44 years ago by the New York Metropolitan Conference of the Men of Reform Judaism, these services were intended to provide a place to celebrate the High Holidays for students, military, and young adults away from home. (Non-students are requested to contribute.) For more information about this organization and these services go to: www.BerniesServices.org
Services will be conducted by Rabbi Leonard A. Schoolman, founding director of the Center for Religious Inquiry at St. Bart's, where he has led High Holy Day services in the main sanctuary for the past seven years.Music Director for these services is Paolo Bordignon, Associate Director of Music and Director of the Choristers at St. Bart's. An accomplished soloist and chamber musician on harpsichord and organ, Paola has performed worldwide.
