Rosh Hashanah 5787 · Chabad of Wheeling

Rosh Hashanah in Wheeling

For the first time, Chabad of Wheeling is hosting High Holiday services right here in our community. Join us for services, shofar, and festive holiday lunches. A seat is ready for you.

Friday evening, September 11 – Sunday, September 13
 

Making Space

Shabbat is the day G‑d invites us to step away from weekday demands and make space for family, for G‑d, for rest from the mundane, and for being present with one another.

This year, 5787 begins and ends with Shabbat, so the spirit of Shabbat is present every single day of the year. We invite you to make space for Rosh Hashanah and celebrate the start of this special year with us.

This year is also a first for us: our very first Rosh Hashanah services in Wheeling. There is no better way to begin than together, and we look forward to welcoming you.

Two ways to bring more light

Our first High Holidays in Wheeling are a chance to bring more light into our lives, our community, and the world. Here is how you can help.

01

RSVP

With G‑d's help, we will welcome many people to our services. To accommodate everyone, we need your reservation. Please fill out the form below as soon as you can.

02

Invite Others

Everyone knows someone who doesn't have a place to go. Invite them to experience the atmosphere and specialness of the High Holidays. We need each other in the room together.

Reserve Your Seat

Tell us who will be joining you and which services and meals you expect to attend. Your RSVP tells us how many seats to set, how much food to prepare, and how to arrange the room so a place is ready for each person.
