All are welcome to this free and open family Yom Kippur Service! The service is geared toward families with children ages 5-11. Our Yom Kippur Family Service helps people of all ages focus on our yearly tradition of celebration and renewal, with favorite songs and prayers, the Jonah story, and a chance to connect with others. We are holding this service later in the day so that families can easily stay for the Mincha service with teen leadership, and for Ne’ilah, our short and sweet closing service to Yom Kippur. This service will not be streamed.
