Glastonbury, CT – “We saved a seat for you at High Holiday services.” So says Rabbi Yosef Wolvovsky, director of the Harold Rothstein Chabad Jewish Center in Glastonbury. “If there is room in the heart, there is room in the building!”
In anticipation of the upcoming Jewish New Year, the Chabad Jewish Center has announced its High Holiday Services schedule. They will be “warm, friendly, traditional, and open to all,” says Rabbi Wolvovsky. All are welcome to services at Chabad, free of charge, regardless of background or affiliation.
Membership is not required and there are no prerequisites. All prayers will combine the original Hebrew and translated English. In addition, special childrens programs will accompany the adult services.
