It is traditional for Jews to visit the graves of loved ones during the High Holidays, connecting us to our past, our traditions, and perhaps even to a sense of eternity. We will gather to share these moments, remember those who came before us, and recite Kaddish together. Reb Josh will also be available to sing the memorial prayer El Maleh Rachamim on behalf of anyone who wishes.
This year, we will also take the opportunity to perform a g’niza – the burial of old sacred books and worn-out ritual items. Please reach out to Reb Josh if you have items you would like to include in the ritual, or questions about whether your old Jewish books or ritual items require burial.
