As the gates of the High Holidays draw near, we turn our hearts toward teshuvah, tefillah, and tzedakah — repentance, prayer, and righteous giving.

This year, let your tzedakah take the shape of bread on an empty table. Our our Messiah reminds us that feeding the hungry is not an act of charity alone, but of justice — tzedakah, from the same root as tzedek, righteousness itself. As we ask the Holy One to remember us for life, let us remember those who are hungry now.
As it is written: "Is this not the fast I choose... to share your bread with the hungry?" (Isaiah 58:6–7 — the very words read on Yom Kippur itself).
May your giving be written and sealed for a sweet new year.
L'Shanah Tovah Tikatevu.

The Jewish High Holidays start later this month!

As the Hebrew calendar turns and we approach the Days of Awe, our community is getting ready to step into a brand new year together. Whether you've been part of our congregation for years or you're just looking for a warm, welcoming space to connect and reflect, whether Jewish or intermarried, all are welcome through our doors for the High Holidays.

Come join us as we ring in Rosh Hashanah and draw near to Yom Kippur together with meaningful liturgy, traditional melodies with a Messianic lens at Simchat Yisrael.
