Ma'yan Tikvah - A Wellspring of Hope
Ma'yan Tikvah - A Wellspring of Hope

Information for 2023/5784 Coming Soon

Ma'yan Tikvah's High Holiday services are always unique because they are primarily outdoors. We have created varied opportunities, so choose what works best for you and your family! 

 

Most events are held outdoors, except for the Kol Nidre service, and will take place at a conservation area in the Framingham/Sudbury area. The Kol Nidre service will be held indoors in Weston. 

 

Registration is now open and required for all events. When you click the appropriate registration link, you will see a list of all the options and will be able to check those events you wish to attend. At the bottom of this page you will find suggested donation amounts.

 

Because everything is outdoors, Ma'yan Tikvah's High Holiday plans are subject to change due to extreme weather. You will be informed of our contingency plans upon registration, and will be notified of any changes.

 

Specifics of locations and additional details will be sent after registration. If you have any questions, feel free to contact Rabbi Katy Allen.
