Erev Rosh Hashanah

Wednesday, October 2, 2024

7:30 PM           Erev Rosh Hashanah Service (in-person and livestream)

Please note this year the Erev Rosh. Hashanah service and the Kol Nidre service will begin at 7:30 PM. For Rosh Hashanah, this will allow families to enjoy either an early festive meal before the service or a later after service.  Both services will end slightly earlier to have you home and rested to join us the next day!  We hope you’ll take advantage of this new time and join us in person for the start of these Holy days. 

1st Day of Rosh Hashanah

Thursday, October 3, 2024

9:30 AM        Rosh Hashanah Morning Service (in-person and livestream)                                                                                         Youth Programming (in-person)

12:00 PM      Adult Tashlich will follow the morning service

Following the morning service there will be cups of birdseed to perform the act of Tashlich in our creek behind the synagogue. We hope you will join Rabbi Cohen and Cantor Newman in our backyard for this cleansing ritual to begin the new year.

2:00 PM       Rosh Hashanah Family Service (in-person)

3:00 PM.     Family Tashlich (in-person)                                                                                                                      We'll walk to Indian Creek Park & cast away our sins

Tashlich is the act of casting your sins into a body of water like a river, spring, lake, pond, or well. People prefer natural, flowing bodies of water because it gives the effect of your sins being swept away by the current. We will walk to Indian Creek Park to scatter birdseed in the creek! Our casted-off mistakes become a treat for the birds. Sweet Treats to Follow!

2nd Day of Rosh Hashanah

The second-day services for Rosh Hashanah are more relaxed and intimate than the day before, which often makes the contemplative work of the High Holy Days easier. Come join us as we take a closer look at the themes of repentance and renewal that mark this season.

Shabbat Shuvah

Friday, October 4, 2024

6:00 PM        Shabbat Shuvah Service (in-person and Shabbat livestream)

Shabbat Shuvah falls during the Aseret Yamei Teshuvah – the ten days of repentance, which is the period of contemplation between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. This Shabbat Shuvah, we’ll enjoy a service of invigorating Kabbalat Shabbat singing with the addition of special readings, a perfect combination for the High Holy Days season.
