Fort Lauderdale, Florida, September 16, 2020: As part of their continuing dedication to providing easy access to Jewish faith-based services during the High Holy Days, Hotwire Communications is once again cablecasting full access to all of its Fision TV customers at no additional cost.
Live programming will include a preview of national services broadcast from the Reform Central Synagogue in New York City, the Orthodox Hampton Synagogue, and the Conservative Sinai Temple in Los Angeles on the Jewish Broadcasting Service (JBS) Fision Channel 269, and a preview of Jewish Life TV (JLTV) services led by Rabbi Mark Blazer on Fision Channel 270. The broadcasts will include all of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, including unique family and morning services, with replays airing at later times for additional accessibility.
To protect the health and well-being of all during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, there will not be live, in-person services held by the All Peoples Synagogue airing on Fision Channel 268, but as a special tribute, past services led by local Florida faith celebrity Rabbi Frank will be available to watch on the Fision TV On Demand platform.
“During this pandemic, when our ability to attend services in person has been greatly limited, providing accessible televised services is more important to the Jewish community than ever before,” said Carl Lender, Regional Executive Vice President. “Hotwire Communications is excited to remain a proud partner of Jewish Life TV, All People’s Synagogue, and Jewish Broadcasting Service by providing additional faith-based television services to our customers across the country. It is our hope that by offering these High Holy Day services live and on our Video On Demand library, the ability to stay safe at home while still practicing their faith will bring a sense of comfort and unity to our Jewish customers.”
