Yom Kippur Children's Service & Program led by our Youth Group
A drop-in program (with a short service led by our Youth Group) that includes crafts, stories, and other fun activities for children in kindergarten–3rd grade. Parents must remain in the building.
"Tradition teaches that on Rosh HaShanah the Book of Life is written and on Yom Kippur our decree for New Year is sealed. We are taught that by doing t’shuvah (repentance), t’filah (prayer), and tzedakah (charity), we can have an effect on the severity of the decree. As a result, much of the Yom Kippur liturgy and the prescribed acts for all of the Yamim Noraim are aimed at achieving this goal. Yom Kippur, like Shabbat, is a day when one refrains from work. Leviticus 23:32 describes Yom Kippur as a Shabbat Shabbaton - a sabbath of complete rest. One of the greetings for this day is 'G'mar chatimah tovah,' 'May you be sealed for a good year ahead.'"*
