Come Home for the Holidays 5767 (2006)!

 

Were you ever a member of any youth group sponsored by the Conservative movement?

 

Have you not yet gotten around to joining a synagogue? Will you be away from home on the High Holidays? Are you looking for someplace where you can pray, reflect, and worship surrounded by other Conservative Jews?  If the answer is yes -- we have a program for you!


Project Reconnect, United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism's official alumni association for anyone who was a member of any of the Conservative movement's youth programs, and NAASE, the North American Association of Synagogue Executives, are joining for the second year to offer "Come Home for the Holidays."

 

Below, you will find a list of United Synagogue-affiliated congregations that offer free High Holiday seats to young adults who grew up in the Conservative movement and don’t have a synagogue to go to this year.  The synagogues on the list wish to extend their personal welcome to you. Many of them also can offer you home hospitality, including invitations to holiday meals or to break the fast with members of the congregation.

 

If you can’t find a synagogue near you on the list, don’t give up. Check this site often; our list of participating congregations grows daily.  When you get in touch with a synagogue, please mention that you saw this listing on Project Reconnect's website.  Please be sure to contact the synagogue first before showing up to services.

 

If you have not yet signed up as an alumnus of the Conservative movement through Project Reconnect, please do so. To receive information about events such as these, and to be able to reconnect with many of your old friends, just go to www.projectreconnect.org

 

And from Project Reconnect, NAASE, USCJ and all of our participating Conservative synagogues,

 

Welcome home!

 

** If you represent a congregation wishing to participate, please email reconnect@uscj.org **

 

Residents of Thornhill, Ontario, Canada, should read to the end of this list for a unique program in Thornhill.
