Beth Chaim is going paperless!

Rather than mailing out physical High Holy Day tickets, we will be checking in every person for each service. All you will need is a valid photo ID. Our staff will cross-check your name with our lists and give you your name tag, so that our security team can recognize you in the Sanctuary. The same protocol goes for guest tickets, so all of your guests should also bring photo ID to receive their own name tags. 

These Beth Chaim name tags not only help us be a more welcoming community, they also act as a security measure to ensure everyone in our Sanctuary is meant to be there.

Please wear your name tag throughout the whole of services; bins will be placed near the exit to easily return name tags after each service.
