Our Founder, Rabbi Heather Miller brought texts, traditions, and teachings from the wisdom of the Sages into relevance today. And this last year, she was again joined by the talented and good-hearted Cantorial Soloist Rachel Rothman. Rachel holds her Master’s degree in Vocal Performance from the San Francisco Conservatory of Music and fuels her spirituality and Judaism through music.
The entire lineup of services was offered online including a Rosh Hashanah Seder, and a Morning Rosh Hashanah Service, as well as a hybrid (in person and online) Tashlich Service, Kol Nidrei Service, a Yom Kippur morning service, Yizkor, and Neilah service (See below to sign up). As always, services was free of charge to attended, but contributions allow us to uphold this value of keruv/accessibility.
