Description:
Rosh HaShanah September 18-20, 2009
Yom Kippur September 27-28, 2009
Come and join the Beyt Tikkun Community for a spiritually deep High Holy Day experience. Services will be under the direction of Rabbi Michael Lerner.
Our services are like our shul, traditional in most of the format and melodies, with lots of Hebrew prayer, singing and dancing, with many innovative English translations and commentaries, with time for inner work so that the whole thing doesn’t feel like a performance or a stage show. Our emphasis on being spiritually alive and experiencing the transformative power of these special days.
Our High Holiday services are also a celebration of life—with music, dancing, and schmoozing. We invite you to come and to bring your family and your friends. Many people who are not Jewish come to our services and are made to feel welcome there.
Children: Children under 16 are admitted at no cost. Free childcare will be available during the day-time services.
There will be special services for children on the first day of Rosh HaShanah and on Yom Kippur. These services will begin at 11:00 am and will be led by Robin Mendelson, teacher and well-known early-child educator of Judaism.
Location of Services: All services will be at the University of San Frjancisco except for the 2nd day of Rosh Hashanah (September 20) which will be in Berkeley. Click here for directions and more information.
