Sunday Worship: Sounding the Shofar

Jeremiah Kalendae, preaching

JoAn Peters, Worship Associate

The Yamim Noraʾim — the Days of Awe — arrive, with the shofar proclaiming the Jewish New Year and inviting all to take inventory of their lives. What forgiveness might you offer to another this year? What forgiveness do you seek? Join us as we reflect upon these important religious holidays and their transformative wisdom. A shofar is a ram’s-horn trumpet used by ancient Jews in religious ceremonies and as a battle signal, now sounded at Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.
