Days of Awe
Leaders: Rev. Leslie and Molly Lemen Music: Vera Alexander
“If you believe breaking is possible, believe that fixing is possible.” —Rabbi Nachman of Breslov
The ten days beginning on Rosh Hashanah (the Jewish new year) and ending the evening of Yom Kippur, (the Day of Atonement) are described as “The Days of Awe:” a period for meditation on the year that has passed and a sacred opportunity to make amends, inscribing intentions for the year to come. This morning, we will reflect on the spiritual practice of forgiving and being forgiven — even extending the possibility of forgiveness to ourselves.
