High Holiday Services and Events
Services at the Park Row Synagogue are free, and all are welcome! No registration is required.
Share the Yom Tov Joy and make all of these important and vital holiday experiences available to the community and students. Give a New Years Gift!
At times of our joy and celebrations, the Torah always reminds us to 'remember those in need'. Because our joy cannot be complete when our fellow brothers and sisters are in need.
If you can help share the joy of the holiday season, please know that even a small gift will go a long way to helping those in need in our community.
