Torah calls it Yom T’ruah, a day of shofar sounds, of loud and joyful exclamation. Rosh Hashanah is, according to our oldest texts, a day of celebration.
That’s exactly how we will mark our New Year. Please, feel free to come to services in bright and beautiful colors to give honor to the world’s birthday. Bring your Book of Life journals from last year or buy a new one, if you like — we’re supposed to have something new for the New Year!
Join us for services of joy and hope and new beginnings. We look forward to seeing you there!
