We come to Ne’ilah with our final pleas for forgiveness from God and gather communal strength to embrace the year ahead. During Ne’ilah, we celebrate the theme of birth and renewal with a special ceremony for children brought into our lives since fall of 2023. The prayers and songs with our Nefesh band bring harmony and momentum to our beautiful closing worship experience and the conclusion of our fast.
