Starting with the beautiful evening of Erev Rosh Hashanah, culminating in the final shofar blast of Yom Kippur, adding Sach on top of our Sukkah, and dancing to commemorate starting from the beginning of reading from the Torah. The High Holy Days at Beth Emet are a heartwarming way to usher in the new year (5785) as a united community.
