Sukkot this year is October 6-13. CJC will celebrate the holiday on Friday, October 10 at 6pm with Shabbat in the Sukkah in Half Moon Bay, a perfect place to come for a pilgrimage and harvest festival.
Vegetarian lasagne, garlic bread, and salad will be served! Desserts and drinks would be a nice addition. Click here to email Brianne for more information and to RSVP. If you can bring drinks or a dessert to share or help with set up and/or clean up, please let Brianne know.
What is the Festival of Sukkot and why do we celebrate it?
Sukkot is one of the most joyful festivals on the Jewish calendar. This year it begins this evening. “Sukkot” means “booths,” referring to the temporary structures we erect to give thanks for the fall harvest. The holiday also commemorates the 40 years when the Israelites wandered in the wilderness after the giving of the Torah on Mt. Sinai. Read more here. |
