High Holiday Services with the Downtown Synagogue


  • Bethel Community Transformation Center 8801 Woodward Avenue Detroit, MI, 48202 United States (map)

The Days of Awe blend reflecting on the past and looking toward the future as we reaffirm our sacred relationships. We are excited to invite you to join us for the Days of Awe, and to support an increasingly vibrant and diverse Jewish community in the City. Based on the overwhelmingly positive responses we received, this year we will once again partner with our friends at the Bethel Community Transformation Center and hold our services in the stunning sanctuary. In our worship, we will continue to blend innovation and our community's evolving traditions as we introduce Machzor Hadash, which is both gender neutral and has contemporary translations. We will conclude Yom Kippur by studying, praying, and breaking the fast with our neighbors from Congregation T'chiyah and the Reconstructionist Congregation of Detroit.


RSVP is requested. Please see the schedule of services and FAQ.
