Dear Friends,
We are a few weeks away from Rosh Hashanah, the beginning of the year 5782 in the Jewish tradition. This year we will be able to share physical space with other people. We will have a Zoom link for all who would like to attend services from their home.
Register for the services by sending an email with your name(s) and address to info@JILLI.org. We will provide the location for services when you register.
There is no charge to attend our services, however, a donation to JILLI to the best of your ability is greatly appreciated. Please consider a donation in multiples of 18, the numerical equivalent of the Hebrew word for life, such as $54, $90, $180, $ 360, $ 1,800.
If you would like to lead a part of the service, or read something, please do not hesitate to let us know. We love when people participate!
