Frequently Asked Questions
Are Services at Chabad for me?
Of course! Our services are set up in a style that everyone — regardless of background or affiliation, can feel welcome and able to participate and enjoy the High Holiday services. The environment is warm, friendly and non-judgmental.
Do I need to become a member to join the Services?
No! There is no requirement to become a member to join our services, nor do we charge for seats. While we obviously do appreciate contributions, we don't believe one has to pay to pray!
What kind of Services do you offer?
Services that are relevant, spiritual, informative, and thoroughly enjoyable. The services are conducted in both Hebrew and English, and the page numbers are continuously announced throughout the services, allowing everyone to know where we are holding.
Our prayer books have both Hebrew and English, as well as transliteration, for all the parts of the services that are sung or read in unison. This allows everyone to pray in the language they feel most comfortable with, and to participate and feel at home.
I have a fear of Services being long and boring. Will the Services at Chabad be the same?
Absolutely not! Throughout the services, the meaning and background of many of the prayers will be presented. Many famous Jewish melodies will be included in the prayers, making our services interactive, entertaining and educational.
Do I need to bring a head covering, tallit or prayer book?
No! We will provide all our congregants with all the provisions necessary. If you would like to bring your own head covering or tallit, you are welcome to do so.
