The high holiday liturgy tells us that three things mitigate the “badness” of the decree: repentance, prayer, and charity. In this three part series, we will take a look each of these aspects in preparation for the coming Days of Awe.
Sessions will compliment each other, but each will stand on its own. Come for one, two, or all three. No prior knowledge or text skills necessary.
Session 1 - September 4th @ 8pm
When Repentance Really Means Returning
Session 2 - September 12th @ 8pm
Three Aspects of Prayer
Session 3 - September 18th @ 8pm
Tzedakah: Frameworks for Giving
Classes are open to all backgrounds and levels. Come to one session or to all three.
