Are tickets required for services?

There will not be any paper tickets for Rosh Hashanah or Yom Kippur.

For Kol Nidre, a ticket will be required - Tickets will be available to pick up before the Kol Nidre Service begins.

All members and non-member ticket holders will be on a list that will be checked at the door. For security reasons, we cannot let anyone in who is not on our list.

Do I need my own prayer book?

For the High Holidays, we use Gates of Repentance, CCAR Press. To create an inclusive experience, each adult should have a copy of the prayer book, including those who are watching the service on our live stream.

This is the Prayer Book that we use exclusively for High Holiday services, and a pdf of this book is not available. If you have a copy of this book from past City Shul High Holiday services, you do not need to purchase a copy. 

Please note that we do not provide prayer books and there are no loaners or book sales at services.  Please note that this book is "out of print", so we are able to sell you used books in excellent condition at a lower price.

Please bring your book to every High Holiday Service, starting with Selichot on September 9.

Copies of this book can be purchased HERE for $20 each. If you are purchasing tickets for High Holidays you can purchase your prayer books directly on the form.

Your book will be ready for you to pick up when you arrive at your first service.
