tisha b'av: pre-fast meal & eicha - saturday, august 2, 7:30 pm
For our observance of the 9th of Av, the date of the destruction of the Temples in Jerusalem, we will gather for a dairy, pareve pre-fast meal, learning with Rabbi Kaiman, services, to recite Eicha, the Book of Lamentations, and to chant kinnot, the melodic liturgical poems of sorrow reserved for this day. It is a somber yet powerful gathering that connects us with the long, pathos-filled history of our people, and holds particular resonance this year.
