High Holy Day Your Way 2019

/in , /by

While we are continued with our Hugim and Babysitting for infants to Grade 3, we have created a new morning program for 4-6 grade called High Holy Day Your Way. Led by Benji Berlow, Rabbinic Assistant, this interactive program makes children the center of the program.  They were able to create, learn, and experience the High Holy Days.

As Fall approaches, Jews throughout the world prepare for a unique ten-day period of prayer, self-examination, fasting, and repentance. It is time for the Yamim Noraim, the Days of Awe, the High Holy Days: Rosh HaShanah and Yom Kippur. These holidays are preceded by a month of reflection: the Hebrew month of Elul. During this time, morning worship includes special penitential prayers and concludes with the blowing of the shofar as a reminder of the approaching season of atonement.  High Holy Day services at The Temple are led from Mishkan Hanefesh, the new Machzor of Reform Judaism, Creative Children’s Services feature storybook themes, and Classical Services are led from the Sinai Edition of the Old Union Prayer book.

While we are continued with our Hugim and Babysitting for infants to Grade 3, we have created a new morning program for 4-6 grade called High Holy Day Your Way. Led by Benji Berlow, Rabbinic Assistant, this interactive program makes children the center of the program.  They were able to create, learn, and experience the High Holy Days. For Rosh Hashanah, students made a service with yoga, a gameshow, songs from camp, and confetti. We also had a Tashlich service with dissolving paper and Wheel of Fortune.  For Yom Kippur, we examined the song “Man in the Mirror”.  Additionally, we used the lessons about changing our actions to create our own pages of Talmud.
