Selichot: What Is Sin?

Selichot is the gateway to the High Holy Days; and on Saturday, August 31, at 9:00p, we will come together for a stimulating — and fun! — exploration of the concept of sin as the opening to the beautiful and poetic service of Selichot.

Please join us for discussion, refreshments, and the Selichot service. We will transform the Torah covers to white, as we prepare to transform ourselves. The Selichot prayer book, Gates of Forgiveness, is one of the most beautiful of our liturgies, and it is read on the Saturday night preceding Rosh Hashanah.

Come and share in this gentle entry into the High Holy Days.
