Still Small Voices: Davvening as Jewish Spiritual Practice “Yaaleh: Let our Voices Rise,” with Hazzan Hirschhorn

Tue, August 17, 2021 at 7:30 pm9:00 pm

Jews spend LOTS of hours — especially during Rosh HaShanah and Yom Kippur — reciting ancient prayers. Maybe during those long hours you wonder what you’re doing. Does God hear? Or exist? Might some other activity be more useful? 

During the month of Elul, as Rosh HaShanah approaches, please join AC’s clergy to explore how we can make our prayer meaningful. Be not afraid!  No honest question or proposed answer is out of bounds. Yael, Natasha and Jeremy will facilitate conversations among us, and will share what works for them. All sessions will meet at 7:30 on the Tuesday and Thursday evenings of Elul.

How do we spiritually prepare ourselves for one of the most difficult sections of Kol Nidre evening – Viddui, the Confession?  This beloved poem’s answer is to lift our voices higher, in hope and song. We will chant and explore different melodies associated with this text, each offering its own map for lift off.
