  • This is an exclusive service geared for Jews in their 20s and 30s.

    Scroll down for the complete Yom Kippur schedule for The Young Minyan

    This service will take place at:
    The Chabad Annex- 676 Amsterdam Ave and 93rd Street.

    To reserve seats at our main service please click here.

  • If you cannot afford to pay the full price for a seat at this time please select how many subsidized seats you'd like to reserve and give a general donation for the amount you can pay.


  • You have the opportunity to reserve one of the special honors that take place during the Yom Kippur Services. 
    The amount donated for the honor goes directly to the expenses of running the Shul over the High Holidays and will help those who cannot afford the full seat price.
    We reserve the right to honor any offer above the suggested amounts below within 24 hours of reserving an honor. You will be notified if that does happen and will be given the option to increase your bid.


    THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE HONORS

    Opening the Ark for Kol Nidrei
    It is very meritorious for one to open the Ark, and take out the Torah-scrolls to be held during Kol Nidrei. While removing the Sifrei Torah one should kiss and caress them while confessing his sins
    Opening the Ark, especially the first time, funnels through the blessings of G‑d.

    Holding the Torah Scrolls
    It is taught: It is a source of merit to hold any of the scrolls – especially the first one – during Kol Nidrei and is a very great privilege (Yesod v'Shoresh ha'Avodah; Ari Z"L).
    This honor stands you right next to the cantor installing you as a member of the ecclesiastical court, which annuls all unfulfilled vows, thereby, dispensing forgiveness to the Jewish community.

    Maftir Yonah
    The Maftir Aliyah at Mincha on Yom Kippur Afternoon is the most important Aliyah of the day, as well as the last. Tradition tells us that buying this honor is a special segulah for wealth. In communities the world over this merit is bought for thousands of dollars. Remember, you reap what you sow.
    There can be no better investment than this.
    If you are not comfortable reading the Haftorah you can nominate someone else to read it for you.

    Opening the Ark for Neilah
    This is the final Ark opening of Yom Kippur. Suffice it to say, this is truly the end – the chatimah – of our service and petition to G‑d. This is your final chance, before the "Gates of Heaven" close ("Neilah").
    With this honor you are the "gatekeeper" for our final supplications. Tradition tells us that the one who merits opening the Ark for Neilah will be blessed with long life!
