New! Welcome to our kiddie Shul!
One of our new main attractions and initiatives of our High Holidays at Congregation Kol Israel is the “Kiddie Shul”; a program of well supervised activities for all ages. Hours of the Kiddie Shul are TBD. 
The children are divided into age appropriate groups and led by energetic counselors. They get to experience the joy of holidays in their own special way-in their newly designated facilities within the Shul, close to their parents.
Program highlights include:
Songs | Stories | Drama Skits | Discussion Groups | Refreshments | Games and Prizes
Kids love this program and learn a lot in the process ensuring that the High Holidays will be a meaningful and enjoyable experience for the entire family.
NO MEMBERSHIP.
Services are open to all Jews from all walks of life – regardless of background, level of observance or affiliation. The Chabad credo centers on the concept of Ahavas Yisroel – the love and acceptance ff a fellow Jew without judgment or preconditions.
It is this spirit of unity and sense of belonging that permeates the entire atmosphere throughout all services, meals and special gatherings. This no membership policy also applies to all of our services, classes and programs throughout the year. Our doors and hearts are always open to you.
