SUMMARY:MULTI-ACCESS At The Scottish Rite Center: Erev Rosh Hashanah
DESCRIPTION:Sanctuary opens at 6:15 pm. Main service starts at 7:00 pm. \nTickets are required for nonmembers (All Access or Virtual Only). \nWelcome the new year\, celebrate the birthday of the world\, and gather with our community as we face this moment together\, and begin to draw on the practices of this season to sustain us and uplift us in difficult times. \nTeaching by Cecilie Surasky from the Othering and Belonging Institute. Service led by Rabbi Dev Noily\, Fresh Lev White and Hazzan Shulamit Wise Fairman with Musical Prayer Leaders Beth Dickinson and Debbie Fier\, joined by Julie Nesnansky and Avi Rose. \n… \nCecilie invites us to reflect: \nWe belong to each other. When we say those words\, who is the “we\,” and what do we mean by “belong?” In a time of growing war\, polarization and incapacitating grief\, Cecilie Surasky will explore the urgency of resetting our spiritual and political GPS toward expanding our sense of who belongs\, instead of contracting it. Drawing on her lifetime of political organizing\, experience with traumatic grief\, and the work of the Othering & Belonging Institute at UC Berkeley\, she will pose the question: What would it take from each of us to hold each other’s humanity sacred\, and chart a truly radical course of belonging without othering? \n… \nZoom participants: You may want to have candles to light with us at the beginning of service\, challah and wine or juice for Kiddush and Motzi after services. \n  \nFor in-person attendance\, please adhere to the COVID Public Health Protocols: \nKehilla requires masking at all in-person\, indoor events. See the full Kehilla COVID Public Health Protocols here\, and see other accessibility information here. \nAll events at Kehilla are scent-free. Click here for information about what it means to be scent-free. \n  \nMore info and tickets here.
