Lulav and Etrog Orders

The Torah instructs us to take four species in hand to celebrate Sukkot - willow, palm, myrtle and citron. The first three are collectively called a lulav.

Connect & Comfort

Tuesday, September 27, 2022 at 5:30 PM

On Holy Days, in the Temple in Jerusalem, mourners and others who had experienced difficulty during the year would circle the Temple grounds in one direction while other worshipers would circle in the other. As a result, they would bump into each other and one could offer support to the other. We invite you to join us on the second day of Rosh Hashanah so that we can connect with each other, offer words of comfort, and wish each other a Shanah Tovah.
