High Holiday Services
Not sure what to do for Rosh Hashana? BU Hillel is here to help! If you are a student who wants to go to services, we are more than glad to arrange carpools to one of the local synagogues: Temple Beth El Zedek or Hebrew Congregation. Contact Daniel at dmakuton@butler.edu if you want to attend a service or if you have any more questions.
We have similar arrangements for Kol Nidre and Yom Kippur and at 5 pm, we will have a Breakfast.
Hag Sameach!
