COMING UP ON THE CALENDAR
YOM KIPPUR
WEDNESDAY & THURSDAY | OCTOBER 1 & 2
Begin the holiest day of the year with the moving and soulful Kol Nidrei prayer. A sacred and powerful evening to open the Yom Kippur fast in unity and reflection. Gather for the meaningful Yizkor memorial service, followed by a delicious community break-fast meal to conclude the fast together.
SUKKOT
MONDAY & TUESDAY | OCTOBER 6 & 7
Sukkot is a joyful Jewish holiday that comes right after the High Holidays, celebrating gratitude, unity, and the harvest season. We gather in the sukkah—a beautifully decorated outdoor hut that reminds us of the protection and care Hashem provided for the Jewish people in the desert. It’s a time of togetherness, song, and joy.
