Reflective Kol Nidre - Creative Service in the Social Hall
In this service, we focus on the essence of the liturgy, including the central anthems such as Kol Nidre and Avinu Malkeinu. Overall, we include less liturgy as Rabbi Gurevitz and Cantorial Soloist Sharon Brown Goldstein highlight a key theme each year that weaves through the service to invite congregants into a more personal and meditative start to this holiest day of the year. Available on Livestream.
