Selichot is one of the most beautiful rituals of our year. Not a traditional prayer service, it is an opportunity to begin the High Holy Day flow, moving as a community into a deeper place of gentleness, repentance, forgiveness, expansiveness and beauty.

Together we visit the Ner Shalom section at Pleasant Hills Cemetery in Sebastopol.

Would your older teen or adult with a disability enjoy a way to experience the Jewish holidays in a family-friendly environment? If so, you and your teen/adult are invited to join us for eight sessions celebrating the Jewish holidays through art, music, movement, and story. We have interfaith families as well as families who are new or who are returning to Judaism.

We welcome the new year 5787 with joy and song and prayerful deepening.

We welcome 5787 together.
