Selichot or slichot (Hebrew: סליחות) are Jewish penitential poems and prayers, especially those said in the period leading up to the High Holidays, and on Fast Days. In the Ashkenazic tradition, it begins on the Saturday night before Rosh Hashanah. If, however, the first day of Rosh Hashanah falls on Monday or Tuesday, Selichot are said beginning the Saturday night prior to ensure that Selichot are recited at least four times
Merkaz Israeli Committee
This Wednesday, Sept. 21 at 8P
Please join us to learn about the Merkaz Israeli Committee’s plans for the upcoming year at Bnai Keshet and how you can get involved. For those who have attended Moshe Levi’s classes, you will be happy to hear that Moshe is returning to teach once again on Shabbat mornings and, this year, also run two or three more specialized programs on week nights at some point during the year. Bring your ideas and energy and help us in our aim to make connections with the people and the land of Israel from a cultural, historical, spiritual, and communal point of view.
