Healing Service – 4:00 PM (Zoom)

Yizkor Service ~ 5:00 PM (Zoom)
Led by Sally Churgel
As we take stock on Yom Kippur, we are aware of those who have gone before us whose influence we still feel. Join us for memory, story and song. Please have handy photos or memorabilia of loved ones whose loss you hope to reflect on. (If you wish your loved ones' names to be included in our printed Yizkor list, be sure to note the Yizkor item when you register.) (75 minutes, Yom Kippur registration required.)
Neilah Service ~ 6:15 PM (Zoom)
Led by Reb Irwin and Friends
In our Jewish imagination, the Gates of Heaven swing shut at the end of Yom Kippur. The Neilah service is our last communal opportunity to make amends, to reach new resolve, to write our intentions in the Book of Life. The service is followed at 7:30 PM by a short havdalah and a light break-the-fast. As we will break the fast via Zoom, please be sure to have some food at hand so we can break our fast together.
