The City Congregation Yom Kippur Service 2023

Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, occurs ten days after Rosh Hashanah. While the holiday is traditionally a time for confessing sins and seeking repentance, in Humanistic Judaism, Yom Kippur guides us to seek and offer forgiveness among ourselves. In recognizing the wrongs we have done and confessing before one another we affirm our belief in human responsibility for our own lives, behavior, and future. Teshuva (repentance, or return), tefilla (prayer, or self-reflection), and tzedaka (charity) – meaning a return to our ideals, self-reflection, and putting our ethics into action – are the cornerstones of the Humanistic celebration of Yom Kippur. Other themes of a Humanistic Yom Kippur include: self-reflection; forgiveness; remembering our past; honoring our ancestors; and personal change. Services were led by Rabbi Tzemah Yoreh, with Jen and David Klein as our song leaders, and feature participatory readings from members. Visit us at https://citycongregation.org
