Rabbi Jessy

Details

Spend the last hours of Yom Kippur at Third Space. Join Rabbi Jessy as we explore the idea of Building the World We Want to See. What is your heart yearning to create? What responsibilities do we have to help build the world as we desire to see it? What wisdom from Jewish tradition helps to imagine our ability to impact the different realms in which we live our days?  

Through a combination of voices from Jewish tradition, maybe a song lyric or two, and the voices in the room, we will fill up on ideas and engage with important questions on this Day of Atonement. All are welcome—no prior knowledge necessary to participate.  

This year we will add a brief memorial service between learning and breakfast for those remembering loved ones who are no longer with us.  

Whether it is your custom to fast or not, after learning, join us for bagels and shmear (and maybe some kugel) as the ten days of awe come to an end. While we eat, we’ll share some intentions for the year ahead and honor this special and sacred time with new and old friends. You are welcome to come for all or some of this Happening depending on where you plan to spend your time this Yom Kippur. 

Schedule for the day:
Learning 4 pm – 5:30 pm.
Memorial Service 5:45 pm – 6:15 pm
Break fast 6:15 pm – 8 pm
