 Services & Events

"Have an Easy Fast!"

Yom Kippur Study Session & Healing Servicem, 3:30-4:30 pm


"We Are All Jonah." An exploration of why at different times, we all flee – from uncomfortable conversations, truths we don’t want to own, work we don’t want to do – and what Judaism and our texts have to offer in response: The opposite of flight is presence – some might call that prayer. What is prayer and what is presence and what can we learn about them from the Story of Jonah? Join Cantor Harriet as she leads us in a most unexpected discovery on Yom Kippur afternoon.


Afterward will be a special Healing Service, with "Visual T'filah" also featuring beautiful music, both classical -- with our HHD Quartet -- and contemporary.
