About the Sermon: Join us on Sunday, September 24th, as we honor and recognize the Jewish High Holy Days of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. The primal sounds of the shofar will awaken us to spiritual invitations. During this time of year, we are encouraged to reflect and account for the harm we have caused. The Time for All Ages will look at institutional harm. The choir will bless us with Avinu Malkeinu. And Rev. Erica Richmond will preach on apology, repentance, and individual relationships.
