Tamid’s Spiritual Home
Tamid gathers at the Iconic 9/11 Chapel in Lower Manhattan on Broadway and Vesey (209 Broadway) – the oldest house of worship in New York City and the chapel where George Washington prayed on the day of his Presidential Inauguration in 1776. We are grateful to Trinity Wall Street for sharing this venue with Tamid (please enter through the Vesey gate on the North side of the Chapel Gardens). The Chapel is ADA compatible.
Children and Young Families – Shaboom for the New Year!
For the toddler to under age-5 set, we’ve created Shaboom! a special 90-minute “musical journey” (9-10:30 AM) for families with children (birth – age 5). The program will begin in the chapel with music and prayer, followed by snack, art and story time in the Chapel Gardens. Perfect for toddlers and preschool age children. Non-members welcome with a $180 seat reservation per adult (also provides access to main services) – please make your seat arrangements via this link.
Main Services for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur
Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur will be led by Rabbi Darren Levine and Musical director, Matt Turk, along with our talented musicians Chesney Polis, Gary Schreiner, and Rich Stein. The prayer service is projected on a large screen at the front of the chapel for everyone to enjoy Tamid’s blend of tradition and contemporary musical and teachings and sermons that are insightful and inspiring.
Tamid New Year Luncheon, 12:30 PM
Join us for a casual buffet luncheon following our Rosh Hashanah prayer gathering. The luncheon is included for members and for anyone who has individual seat reservations for Rosh Hashanah and includes an array of different types of main dishes and salads for every palate. This is a terrific opportunity to see old friends and to make new connections for the New Year.
Yizkor on Yom Kippur Morning
In honor of the loved ones that are no longer with us, Yizkor will take place during the Yom Kippur Morning ceremony. This is a time honored tradition at Tamid. If you are joining us for Yom Kippur and would like to include a name(s) of those departed and/or picture of your loved one(s), please send a photo and name to the Tamid office (connect@tamidnyc.org) before September 14th at 5 PM so we can properly include their names.
Neila and Havdalah, Closing Ceremony, 6 PM
As the gates close on Yom Kippur, we join together in the final chapter of worship. This is a particularly special moment as we lower the lights in the synagogue, illuminate it with candles, and blast the shofar one final time in honor of the New Year.
