All-Congregation Tashlich
The Hebrew word tashlich literally means “You shall cast away.” In the book of Micah (7:18-20) we find the verse: “And you shall cast (tashlich) into the depths of the sea all their sins.” Traditionally, Jewish communities throughout the world have taken Micah’s words to heart by gathering on Rosh Hashanah and symbolically casting away their sins by throwing breadcrumbs into a lake, stream or ocean.
Join us for Tashlich on Saturday, September 16, following Rosh Hashanah morning services (about noon). Meet in the lobby for directions to on Winchester Road (street address 3900 Old Mill Road). Bread will be provided. No livestreaming will be available.
