YOM KIPPUR THANK YOU!
Thank you to the hundreds of you who joined us over the course of Yom Kippur, for some, one or all of the services!
This year, we added more chairs than ever before, and at peak times, we managed to max out the tent. Being surrounded by so many people standing in unity on this special day at the culmination of a challenging year, was uplifting, empowering and powerful!
The energy and emotions were palpable at all of the major services and especially at Neilah!
Ending Neilah with joyful and hope filled songs as we sounded the Shofar, helped end off this day, with the confidence that G-d willing we are in for a much better year ahead for everyone!
In the middle of the day, we read the names of all of the victims of Oct 7th and said a special prayer for every one of the hostages for a safe return. We are hopeful that these coming days bring the miracle that we are all waiting for.
Seeing so many new faces, young and old, is always a huge boost!
The break fast was amazing, and there is nothing left to put away!
Thank you to Shmuel Freeman for leading the services in such a beautiful way. Thank you to our Security Team and Ushers for their exceptional help and dedication over the course of the holiday, and thank you to Chai Security for proving security throughout Yom Kippur.
Of course we are tremendously grateful to the Sudbury, MA Police Department for stopping by throughout the day and checking in on things.
On to Sukkot & Simchat Torah and the many celebrations we have planned for all ages!
