Rosh Hashanah begins next Monday, September 6th at sundown! The Jewish New Year is a celebration of humanity. It is the anniversary of the creation of Adam and Eve, and a day of judgment and coronation. This holiday is a time to contemplate our imperfection, but also a reminder to never lose hope that we can achieve great things. Let us celebrate Rosh Hashanah with amazing titles focused on learning about the tradition and it’s themes of forgiveness, relationship building and repairing, and bettering one’s self! Shanah tovah um’tukah!
