Erev Yom Kippur Kol Nidre

September 24, 2023 @ 7:00 pm

Yom Kippur- the Day of Atonement- is considered the most important holiday in the Jewish faith. Falling in the month of Tishrei (September or October in the Gregorian calendar), it marks the culmination of the 10 Days of Awe, a period of introspection and repentance that follows Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year. According to tradition, it is on Yom Kippur that G-d decides each person’s fate, so Jews are encouraged to make amends and ask forgiveness for sins committed during the past year. The holiday is observed with a 25-hour fast and a special religious service. Yom Kippur and Rosh Hashanah are known as Judaism’s “High Holy Days.”

Seating will be limited in the sanctuary. After that, we will use the Community Room for overflow with large screen monitors for the service.

This event is available FREE via livestream on Vimeo. If you would like to help us defray the cost of the livestream services you may donate below.
