ReCollect
A Kaddish Gathering
As this high holy day season approaches, we enter a tender season of consciousness – that time has passed and so, too, the time when we were last physically together with lost loved ones.
ReCollect/Yizkor is a seasonal gathering to remember our loved ones, share stories, lift memory, break bread and say Kaddish, the ancient memorial prayer, together. ReCollect meets near the times of memory (Yizkor) on the Jewish calendar (Yom Kippur, Sukkot, Passover and Shavuot).
Whether experiencing a recent loss, remembering a loved one who passed away long ago, or showing up in support of community, we gather to acknowledge feelings of loss that can be particularly painful as we anticipate an empty chair at our tables.
Our next ReCollect/Yizkor will help us to prepare for the Yizkor Ritual at Yom Kippur. It will be held BOTH in person (at 5:45 pm ET) * and online (at 6:00 pm ET) simultaneously.
*Please note, the in person event will take place outdoors on a rooftop in Manhattan. Masks will be required while traveling indoors to the roof. If you are comfortable sitting on the ground, you’re welcome to bring a blanket, as we have limited seating. Light snacks will be provided. Please do bring something to share. We ask that you not bring any dishes with meat in them, as we strive to respect everyone’s dietary practices and observances.
