This course will provide an opportunity to wrestle with some of the traditional prayers of confession which might, at times, challenge us, while also – in the true spirit of Jewish Renewal - make space for our own creative reformulations of the practices of forgiveness and repentance handed down through the generations. We will also strive to build a sacred container within the group to ground the many experiences of the holiday cycle of Tishrei – taking time together to marinate in, and integrate, our experiences through services and other offerings in the wider community during this heady month of celebration and returning to Source.

Participants can sign up for individual classes or the whole series. If you sign up for the whole series - say for Wednesday evenings - and one week you want to come to the other class - i.e. Thursday at noon - that's fine. Participants would just need to let Rabbi Diane know. Rabbi Diane will be teaching the same content each week on Wednesday eve/Thursday day, so it wouldn't make sense for anyone to come twice in a given week or to sign up for both options.
