High Holyday Information 5786/2025

‘True prayer,’ wrote Rabbi Kalonymus Kalman Shapiro, ‘is when the divine within calls out to the divine beyond'. To pray, then, is to find that quiet space within ourselves where we feel the flow of sacred energy, and from there connect with the great vitality that gives life to all being. The music of the festivals, the beauty of nature, the awareness of both love and sorrow, can help as find that inner place where, without words, God speaks with us.

Rabbi Jonathan Wittenberg
