Our theme this year for High Holy Days is Deeper Connection. 

​

What do we hope to achieve?

​

We want this to be a time for the community to come together and experience High Holy Days in a way that’s fulfilling, both individually and collectively. 

​

We hope that as individuals, people will feel held as they experience growth, learning, transformation. This is a great time for personal reflection and to connect what’s happening in our lives with liturgy and Torah.

​

As a community we hope to build deeper connections with each other and embed intentionality for the future of Makor Hayim.

​

​​​

Will I feel at home?

​

Our name means 'source of life', and we work to be a source of hope in this world. We're a Reform, fully egalitarian congregation based and we welcome folks from everywhere. We welcome mixed heritage families, Jews of colour, LGBTQI+ Jews, single Jews, old Jews, young Jews, those who have not stepped into a synagogue for years and those who go every week, Jews who have high levels of Jewish knowledge and Jews who have none, and we'd love to see YOU at one of our events.

​

Are you the partner, friend, or family member of a Jewish person and exploring High Holy Days for the first time?

 

Our ally (what we call our members who are not Jewish, but in a family or relationships with Jews!) Lizzy has written a guide for the High Holy Days!

Together We'll Mark a Meaningful End to 5784 - We can't wait to meet you!
