High Holidays with The City Congregation - Manhattan - Jewish Holidays
High Holidays with The City Congregation - Manhattan
Humanistic Jews see Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur as an affirmation of human power and human dignity. The High Holidays are a time to consider the possibilities for change, for improvement, for happiness that we can create ourselves. Acknowledging human courage and independence, we achieve human dignity.
Adapting the form of our meditations to the content of their message, we can create a truly humanistic celebration of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Our services feature a combination of familiar passages, innovative language, and inspiring music, which give evolving expression to our holiday themes. They provide a meaningful way for cultural Jews to mark these holidays. Members participate in reading the service along with our rabbi.
High Holiday Services are held at a downtown hotel in Manhattan. Guests are always welcome at our services.

Our cultural Shabbat services combine contemporary readings with elements of tradition that result in inspirational and thought-provoking experiences. We introduce original songs and also preserve familiar melodies with new lyrics that are consistent with our Humanistic philosophy. For secular Jews, Shabbat offers a link to our Jewish culture and heritage as we set aside time for renewing our attachments to our Jewish values and teachings, our collected memories and hopes for the future, and our bonds with Jews all over the world.
