Rosh haShanah
2nd-Day Program

Wednesday, October 5 / 2 Tishri

THIS YEAR, WE ARE once again offering an opportunity to participate in worship on the second day of Rosh haShanah, in addition to the Adult Education programming offered for the past several years. The worship and study will be led by members of our congregation. Through this option, our synagogue recognizes and celebrates the variety of observance among its members within the spectrum of Reform Judaism, the involvement of our congregants in leading communal worship, and the opportunity for adults to engage in the mitzvah of Talmud Torah—the study of Torah.

The Torah reading for the service—and the text study later in the morning —will be the Genesis 21, which is the traditional reading for second day of Rosh haShanah. This powerful passage about family and relationships touches upon so many of the essential themes of the Holy Days: the honor we pay to our foundations; the search for our place within the universe; and the hope we hold for the future.

Please join us as we gather as a community for prayer and reflection about creating new worlds of possibility for the New Year.
