Rosh HaShanah Morning in the Beck Family Chapel
Wednesday, October 1 at 7:30 pm
Tickets are required. Your Rosh HaShanah ticket gives you access to your choice of the Congregational Worship morning service in the Sanctuary, or this service in the Chapel. Seating is first come, first served.
We begin our year with new beginnings. As we usher in 5787 with word and song, we gather not as a crowd but as a circle to pray in the round, with faces turned toward one another. The new beginnings this year feel less like a theme and more like a shared experience, discovered together, in eye contact, in the shared hush before the shofar.
Yom Kippur Morning in the
Beck Family Chapel
Monday, September 21 at 10:30 am
Schaefer Family Campus
Tickets are required. Your Yom Kippur ticket gives you access to your choice of the Congregational Worship morning service in the Sanctuary, or this service in the Chapel. Seating is first come, first served.
Gather in the round as Yom Kippur invites us into sacred stillness, creating space to listen not only to the words of prayer, but also to the quiet voice of the soul. Through soulful melodies, thoughtful intentions, and contemplative practices, we will journey inward together, nurturing the spirit and allowing the power of sound, silence, and prayer to guide us toward renewal.
