Gesher invites you to join Rabbi Laurie Rutenberg and Rabbi Gary Schoenberg at their home for an intimate Yom Kippur Observance

This year's Yom Kippur celebration at Gesher is especially geared to those who are “newish to Jewish,” but we hope that it will open the hearts of all, no matter how many rounds of Yom Kippur we have engaged in in our lives. The Pre- Fast Menu on Sunday, September 24th at 4:45 PM will feature Home Smoked Salmon, Onion Soup, Tzimmes, Kugel, Mushroom Strudel, Salad, and Chocolate Mousse. The Spiritual Menu will include deep reflection on the process of re-alignment and renewal, and an opportunity to pen a Teshuvah letter. The gathering will be outdoors.
