Sept. 24 at 10 am, 3845 North Swan Street – "Jewish High Holidays" This active participatory service will recognize the two High Holidays, Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. The 10 days between Rosh Hashanah on Sept. 21 and Yom Kippur on Sept. 30, are a time of charity, prayer and repentance during which people are encouraged to right the wrongs they have done and to forgive those who have wronged them. In the traditional liturgy, the Angel of Life opens the Book of Life on Rosh Hashanah inviting the faithful to reflect on their destinies. At the end of the 10 days, the Angel inscribes their fate for the following year into the Book. Since this is a time of charity, attendees are asked to bring non-perishable goods for the food donation basket. It will also be a Family Program Sunday and families are invited to participate. There will be coffee and conversation after the service, and visitors are welcome.
