We have been learning a lot about Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur over the past few weeks. Some of the main themes that we have been focusing on is the special importance of teshuvah- repentance, tefillah- prayer, and tzedakah- charity and acts of kindness during this time.
Please enjoy the following photos of some of the activities we enjoyed:
Kapparos
Rabbi Okunov swung a chicken over our heads as asked Hashem to forgive us in the merit of our giving the chicken to tzedakah to help feed a poor family.
