As summer winds down and we pause for Labor Day, we’re also making space to pause, reflect, and prepare for the year ahead. Over the weekend, we gathered for Selichot on the Silver Screen—sharing a meal, watching We Have Sinned Before You, and engaging in meaningful conversation about forgiveness and accountability before coming together for Selichot and beginning our journey into the High Holy Days. Thank you to our partners, Atlanta Jewish Film Festival!

What happens when we bring Shabbat into our neighborhoods? Recently, Temple members gathered in Candler Park for Havdalah in the Hood, a simple, beautiful way to mark the end of Shabbat together. Want to bring this to your neighborhood? We’ll provide the candle, spices, prayers, guidance, invitations, and RSVP support. You choose the setting and provide a few light snacks and beverages (or organize a potluck). And together we build community!
