Thank you so much for your support!

Are you looking for a way to refocus before the High Holy Days begin? The Journey Home: Soul Work for the High Holy Days in This Turbulent Year is a 3-session course that will help you experience the season as a spiritual journey from brokenness to wholeness with other spiritual seekers. It is taught from a Jewish spiritual perspective, but you don't have to be Jewishly knowledgeable. These sessions are created to be supportive and community-building. Join us! #jewish #HighHolyDays #elul

A perfect #poem by Joseph Fasano for #roshhashana from James Crews wonderful new book “wonder of small things.” #poetry #highholydays
LETTER
Tonight, as you walk out
into the stars, or the forest, or the city, look up
as you must have looked before love came, before love went, before ash was ash.
Look at them: the city's mists, the winters.
And the moon's glass you must have held once in the beginning.
That new moon
you must have touched once in the waters, saying change me, change me, change me. All I want is to be more of what I am.

Continued thread

2/ SO - this year, we will gather together in community to revisit some of the profound themes of these holy days - such as what is being birthed within us on the day of the world's birth, and what forgiveness really means in the context of Judaism. (It is quite different than how our dominant culture imagines forgiveness.)

Each teaching will involve contemplative and soulful text study and poetry that speaks to our themes, as well as discussion and music.

We will be joined by my dear colleague, Cantor Fran Chalin, and for Kol Nidre, cellists Mary Artmann and Monica Scott. (We will be streaming live from our living room on Kol Nidre!)

I hope you will consider joining us. See all the details at the link below. Everyone is welcome. #HighHolyDays #Mazeldon #judaism #roshhashanah

1/This year, we are doing something different for our High Holy Day Gatherings online.

We are calling it High Holy Days ReImagined.

It's been a really rough bunch of years. My sense is that many of us are exhausted, looking for comfort, and that less is more.

To be honest, I'm feeling the same way, which is why I meditated on what form of gathering for the High Holy Days felt right this year.

The insight that kept coming to me was: simply do what you love, do it simply without the traps of expectations, and speak to the heart. (Cont’d) #HighHolyDays #Mazeldon #judaism #roshhashanah
