Yom Kippur

Yom Kippur is the most sacred of the Jewish holidays, the "Sabbath of Sabbaths."

Services begins at 11 AM.

Yom Kippur Dress: Wear non-leather shoes if possible Start with a similarly modest and elegant outfit to the one you chose for Rosh Hashanah. Again, women should cover their shoulders and should show only a little bit of skin above the knee. Men at most synagogues wear ties and jackets. Most people will wear white if they can - some men will wear a kittle (a traditional white robe) to symbolize Isaiah 1:18 says: "Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow." You are welcome to stay at the congregation all day until the closing service and join us at the Break the Fast.
