High Holy Day Services

Adath Jeshurun is a progressive, egalitarian and sacred community. No tickets and no one is turned away – bring and be yourself on the High Holy Days. Come as you are to Adath Jeshurun Congregation and leave somehow changed for the rest of the year. Please contact Andrea Blumberg, Office Manager, at andreab@adath.net or 952.215.3901 so we can warmly welcome you to egalitarian services with a complimentary High Holy Day pass, or request them online. We can also arrange a meal with home hospitality and connect you to a vibrant community of spiritual seekers beyond the High Holy Days. L'shanah Tovah from Adath.

Bringing Yom Kippur to an End: Exploring the Neilah Service

Picture
A series presented by Rabbi Cytron, Adath Senior Scholar, to prepare for the High Holy Days

On Shabbat Mornings, 10 am - 11 am

Join Rabbi Barry
Cytron as we prepare for the upcoming High Holy Days. He will use the final volume of Rabbi Lawrence Hoffman’s series of books on the High Holy Days entitled The Closing of the Gates. As a culmination to a fascinating exploration of the central prayers of the Days of Awe, this volume explores Judaism’s central message of life’s purpose and the ongoing search for meaning in a world of human frailty but also promise.
