Jewish Community of Greater Stowe

The Kol Nidrei service is the height of the year, as we pray for forgiveness and renewal—for ourselves, our community, and our society. This ritual moment will be musical and meaningful.

This abbreviated service will include powerful music, Torah readings by members, words from Rabbi David, and our most poignant of Yom Kippur prayers. Members are invited to arrive up to 30 minutes early at 9:30am for some musical meditations to prime you for the service.

Monday, September 28, 2:30-3pm Memorialize those beloveds who have passed away in this poignant service. A special prayer will also be included for those lives taken at the hands of COVID-19. For in person, we will gather outdoors, with masks and social distancing strictly required. RSVP necessary. Arrive 15 minutes early. Please bring a chair if you wish to be seated during the ceremony and umbrella. Rain or shine.

If God called out to you, would you run or would you answer? Come engage with our ancient stories, including a dramatic telling of the Jonah and the whale story, and hear the Torah portion that gave rise to the term ‘scapegoat’. Rabbi David and Beth will lead this family-friendly, multi-generational service.

As the gates close, these final, intimate moments of community and prayer will surely inspire. Come hear the final shofar blast. Havdalah at 7:22pm to break-the-fast.

Join us from your Sukkah or porch as we bring in Shabbat and launch Sukkot together. Stay afterwards for the mitzvah of a shared virtual meal in the Sukkah under the stars.
