Welcome to another year at Beth Tikvah Synagogue. Our egalitarian, warm, spiritual, and meaningful High Holiday services will be held in the sanctuary of the Unitarian Universalist Society of Grafton and Upton (UUSGU), 3 Grafton Cmn, Grafton, MA. They will also be offered via zoom and Facebook Live Stream.
It is important that you register to join us for services so that you receive any important updates. In addition, we need to know who will be attending in person for security reasons. When you register, you will be able to select attendance via zoom or in person. That selection is for planning purposes only. Everyone who registers will receive the zoom link and will be on the attendance list. Please click HERE to register.

At Beth Tikvah Synagogue we no longer charge set dues rates for membership. Our pledge based system, called Terumah, is a "free-will" offering, not a required one. Your Terumah is your membership pledge, an annual voluntary financial commitment that is used for our operating budget. If you are interested in joining the Beth Tikvah family go to www.bethtikvahsynagogue.org/join-us.html for more information.
Please call 508-616-9037, or email HighHolidays@BethTikvahSynagogue.org, if you have any questions. Come join our inviting, joyful and spirited community for the High Holidays!
