Jewish prayer services are included in what is called a "siddur," a Hebrew word that connotes "order" -- this is because the prayers are listed and recited in a proscribed order. For prayer services on holidays that have prayers not normally said throughout the year, the prayer book is called a "machzor," a Hebrew word for "cycle" or "return" -- this is because these special days cycle through the year and return each year. Rosh HaShanah and Yom Kippur, because most of their prayers are said only on those days, have machzorim (plural). So do the Jewish Holidays or Passover, Shavuot and Sukkot, but the prayers for these days can also usually be found in a siddur as well.
