Essence of Elul
Essence of Elul: Offerings from Beth Israel Members
From time to time during Elul, we will be sharing recordings of members reflecting thoughts about the themes of the High Holy Days (God as sovereign, new beginnings, teshuvah, making amends, cleaning the slate, being better). These short recordings might be in the form of spoken narrative, music, poetry, dance, visual art, or other forms of expression. They will also be shared as part of the weekly emails. If you would like to create a recording, please contact Laura Lee Blechner.
