Taught by TEE Congregant and Chair of the Ritual Committee, Branden Frederick. Some festivals we celebrate together as a community, some we observe quietly at home, and some we don’t even acknowledge. Join our discussion as we delve into the Hebrew Calendar, de-mystifying the minor holidays, and deepening our understanding of the major ones. We’ll look at the prayers central to each of the festivals, talk about their historic roots, match the holidays up with the agricultural cycle, and seek to understand Reform Judaism’s unique approach towards these ancient (and not-so-ancient) observances.
