We joyously meet the rhythm of the holiday cycle as the year unfolds. From the majestic unfolding of the High Holy Days of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur (join us at the beach for Tashlich!) to the autumnal beauty of Sukkot, to the festive renewal of Simchat Torah — the Tishre cycle brings us all together.
Chanukah is a perennial favorite – the whole building wafts of latkes frying in hot oil. We have been known to hug a tree at Tu B’shevat, create Broadway interpretations of the Purim Story, and camp in the desert to reenact the Exodus at Passover. Our spiritual life at Temple Solel is rich and varied.
