Erev Rosh Hashanah with The Shul of New York
The Erev Rosh Hashanah service marks the arrival of the Jewish New Year at sunset. Join the All Souls community and the Shul of New York for a full schedule of High Holy Days programs, starting with a celebration of newness and hope. Rebecca Bellingham, who preached at All Souls this summer, will be leading worship.
The Shul of New York is a Jewish synagogue whose values closely align with our own, particularly their strong commitment to radical inclusivity. For over 25 years The Shul of New York, a liberal non-denominational synagogue, has fostered a community dedicated to a living, breathing, progressive Judaism. A place where spirituality is practiced, questions are welcomed, prayers are sung, and the sacred is discovered together. The Shul states that “all are welcome as they are to our vibrant, spiritual, inclusive community committed to social justice, personal growth, and a joyful expression of Judaism.” The Shul currently does not have a permanent building and typically meets at the Orensanz Building on the Lower East Side. However, they are unable to use that space for Rosh Hashanah and will instead offer those services at All Souls. As part of this collaboration, our community is invited to attend all these services at either location free of charge.
