The High Holidays – Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur
>
High Holy Days are, in Hebrew, called the Days of fear/awe. There is no preparation really. Even those of us who hear the clarion call for the whole month of Elul that precedes Rosh Hashanah feel overwhelmed by the demand to face the spiritual opportunity presented by the intense Jewish season that begins on Rosh Hashanah. This year is no different. Especially for unaffiliated Jews, who may be more used to being Jewish in hiding (or more precisely, being hidden from Jewish offerings of spiritual opportunity) than celebrating. So, Gesher - A Bridge Home approaches this High Holy Day season with some careful attempt to provide an alternative to walking into services and feeling overwhelmed and estranged.
Teshuvah is one of the keys to High Holy Days. It is the healing process when we move from missing the mark to confession to repair. It is the crucial force that underpins the movement from deep reflection on our lives woven into deep resolve in the coming year. This year, we will make a teshuvah workshop to begin the journey. - Rabbis Gary and Laurie
