A Sanctuary in Time: High Holiday Preparation during the Month of Elul

Starting Tuesday, August 25th - 7:00 to 8:00 pm 
Four sessions led by Rabbinical Student Giulia Fleishman

 
The Jewish month of Elul is a time of spiritual and practical preparation as we head toward the High Holidays. In this four-part series we will study traditional and contemporary sources and engage in reflective writing prompts in order to identify meaningful ways to observe the holidays at home and more fully embrace the four weeks of Elul as a period of spiritual growth. Each week we will delve into a different aspect of the holidays as follows:
  • Tuesday, August 25th: Garments/Clothes
  • Tuesday, September 1st: Food/Fasting
  • Tuesday, September 8th: Space/Home as Sanctuary
  • Tuesday, September 15th: Time/Blessings
All class will meet on Zoom from 7-8pm. Plan to have paper and a writing implement at the ready. You are welcome to join for the entire series or pop in for an individual class.

To join: MVHC High Holiday Preparations Class
