Selichot/Selijot

Please join us in beginning the High Holiday season by attending Maariv, Havdalah, and the Selichot service.

Selichot, meaning forgiveness, is traditionally a service that initiates the High Holiday tradition of teshuvah, or returning to our best selves through repentance and making amends. During the Selichot service, we prepare for Rosh Hashanah by reciting penitential prayers.

Por favor acompáñanos para dar inicio a la temporada de las Altas Fiestas asistiendo a Maariv, Havdalá y al servicio de Selijot.

Selijot, que significa “perdón”, es tradicionalmente un servicio que marca el comienzo de la práctica de teshuvá durante las Altas Fiestas: el retorno a nuestra mejor versión a través del arrepentimiento y la reconciliación. Durante el servicio de Selijot nos preparamos para Rosh Hashaná recitando oraciones penitenciales.
