Each fall, Jewish personnel across the world celebrate the which this begin the evening of Friday, September 18, with the holiday of , and end the evening of October 11, with the holiday of Shemini Atzeret/Simchat . Many in the Jewish community, including those serving on bases around the world and on ships at sea, find they are not able to attend services in person, and this year COVID 19 made it all the more difficult. In an effort to make a Hoy worship service available to every Jew in our Armed Forces, the Jewish Welfare Board (JWB) has consolidated a list of virtual services led by our chaplains around the world. We have endeavored to have a service in every US Zone and in major overseas locations. Please note that this is not an exhaustive list, and unit chaplains should seek information about local services thru their closest military . Attached you will find a list of each location, the Zoom address, and or/ the local point of contact. In addition, we will also have the most up to date information and schedules on our web site at: https://jcca.org/what-we- do/jwb/military-high-holiday-services. Wishing you health and happiness as we begin our Jewish New Year. Shalom, Irv Elson Rabbi Irving A. Elson, CAPT, USN (Ret), Director, JWB Jewish Chaplains Council
