Elul and High Holiday Offerings for 2022
As we welcome the New Year 5783, we welcome you home. For some of you, the JVP community has been a political and spiritual home for years, and we’re thrilled and heartened to see you again. For those of you who are new to JVP, we invite you to join a community that holds your values, discover a new family waiting for you with open arms, and find spiritual leadership to fortify you for the year ahead.
During the High Holy Days, we strengthen our resolve and courage to to turn to whatever needs to be seen and to be healed. We ask: How are we preparing for this New Year? What are we waking up to? What are we returning to? What asks to be repaired? How will we resurface? Come help us realize a vision of home and liberation rooted in collectivity.
JVP is proud to offer this collection of High Holy Days resources and live-streamed services from Rabbis of the JVP Rabbinical Council, Havurah Network, JVP members and congregations across the country. This year, 5783, marks our emergence from the shmita year — a year intended to be one of rest and letting go. But in the wake of this month’s horrifying attacks on Gaza, only the most recent manifestation of the ongoing Nakba, we recognize that we have had little to no rest or time for rejuvenation. In the midst of seemingly endless cycles of violence and oppression, how can we dream up and manifest the new?
For many of us, it is in coming together, in heartbreak and rage, that the new can begin to seem possible. JVP Havurah Network is holding space for all those who wish to be in community as we engage in Judaism beyond Zionism. Join us in interweaving the political and spiritual through prayer, song, reflection, and study in advance of and during the Days of Awe. Gather-in with us or on your own, bring your whole selves, and may we be strengthened in these days for the work ahead.
