The High Holy Days are a period of personal and collective renewal. We gather to reflect on our lives and the directions we’re headed, both personally and as a people. Enveloped in music, thoughtful spiritual direction, prayer, and the warmth of our broad and diverse community, you will be able to experience your process of renewal, inspiration, and prayer for a sweet New Year!
