High Holy Days

 

Selichot

We start the High Holy Day spiritual journey on the Saturday evening prior to Rosh Hashanah. Often, we gather together for a musical event, for learning, and to begin the process of teshuvah (bettering ourselves and relationships with loved ones).

 

Erev Rosh Hashanah in the Meadow

Truly a highlight of the High Holy Day season! We gather outside in our Meadow to welcome the New Year. Our outdoor service is informal, welcoming, and spiritual. It is also free and open to the community.

 

Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur

Our High Holy Day services are led by Rabbi Andy Gordon and Cantorial Soloist Rachel Graber. We gather to welcome in the New Year, to better our lives, and to make our world a better place.

 

Family Services

On Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, we welcome our youngest worshipers to specially prepared services geared for them and their families. These short services include singing, shofar, and a story. Free and open to the community; all are welcome to these services.

 

Prayerbook

Our High Holy Day Machzor (prayer book) is Mishkan HaNefesh, the new Reform High Holy Day Machzor. The prayer book is completely transliterated, filled with poetic readings, and includes a unique two-page spread.
