Jewish community preparations for Rosh Hashanah

Overview

Jewish communities in the United States are engaging in various spiritual and educational preparations ahead of Rosh Hashanah.

In Flatbush, more than 30 synagogues are participating in a community-wide ‘Selichos Seder’ involving collective Torah study. Additionally, Rabbi Shais Taub is scheduled to lead a pre-Selichos farbrengen for men in Cambria Heights, which will be followed by services at the Ohel and an online broadcast.

Broadly, religious leaders such as Rabbi Zachary R. Shapiro have emphasized the holiday as a period for reflection and transformation. In conjunction with these seasonal preparations, Oholei Torah has launched a new educational program for two-year-olds at its preschool sites to provide early immersion in Torah and Chassidishe values.
