The Gates are Open: A Morning of Sacred Blessings

The ten days that separate Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur are especially sacred days. During this precious time, it is said that the gates of heaven are open, and our access to the Divine connection is more available. Let’s use this holy liminal time to come

together and share in a beautiful Sephardic ritual called seudat amenim. In this ritual, we gather in community and we share the blessings we have for the year ahead - for ourselves, for those we love, for those who may be in need of extra love, compassion, or healing. We ask for the blessings we long for, share special foods, and together, we all respond “Amen” to each blessing, offering the blessings support and strength. It is a beautiful and powerful ritual to share together during this holy time.

Space is limited for this event, as we want to keep the group small and intimate.
