2017 Ad Olam High Holy Days Schedule

Come share the spirit & wisdom of Rosh Hashanah
and Yom Kippur with Ad Olam.
These holy-days are a time of prayer,
music, reflection and learning,
a time when the veils between the worlds thins,
a time of return and healing.
Join us in our intention to realign our connection
to our-self and to one another.

The services are Renewal,
and inclusive in orientation, 
yet draw from traditional and mystical and contemporary sources.
We invite new interpretations,
spontaneous expressions,
and powerful music to awaken the deeper truths
and the will to carry them into our actions in the new year.

Most of the service is in English
and is accessible and meaningful for all 
whatever your religious background or secular views.

All are welcome to come to any or all of the services.
All are invited to participate and learn. 

No one will be turned away for lack of funds.
