Hevreh of Southern Berkshire

5787 is almost here! The High Holy Days are a time to come home: to ourselves, to one another, and to the traditions that ground and inspire us. As we look toward Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, we are looking forward to once again gathering in our beautiful open-air sanctuary, singing together, reflecting together, and sharing these sacred days as a community. Join us.

This December, many homes in our community are honoring sacred days to claim hope when in our northern hemisphere the days are short and the night seems so long. Together

We were so proud to be part of the efforts to stock the People's Pantry in Great Barrington with food, pies, and love for the Thanksgiving holiday.

All throughout the morning, 30 volunteers helped put together and distribute Thanksgiving meals for more than 400 Berkshire County residents.

We hope to see you all on Sunday night at the Jewish Federation of the Berkshires's annual concert with the one and only, Michelle Citrin! Many of you got to see Michelle in action last September when she played at Rabbi Gordon's installation celebration-- we hope you'll come out Sunday night to see her again, this time with a full band!
