High Holiday Info
High Holy Days
The Movable Minyan conducts a full schedule of services for the High Holy Days at our home at the Institute of Jewish Education. Our services are led by congregants, rather than clergy, and offer all who attend an opportunity to enter fully into the Days of Awe through song, interpretation, and study sessions for both adults and children. We use the Conservative Judaism's Rabbinical Assembly's High Holy prayer book “Mahzor Lev Shalem". The machzor (prayer book) takes a contemporary approach and uses Hebrew with transliteration and inspiring English interpretations of many of the prayers and psalms.
Our approach to the High Holy days integrates interpretive, spiritual, and educational ideas. For Selichot, we conduct services with an interpretive touch, featuring a story, film or learning activity. Each day’s service features a drash, or Torah discussion led by one of our members, it’s a time when a lively give and take of that day’s portion can occur.
After Rosh Hashana services, the minyan meets at the Community park at the northwest side of 8th St
@ Masselin at the gazebo to cast away our sins in the pond during a Tashlich service. To remember those of blessed memory on Yom Kippur we read from a Yiskor book that we publish each year. On Yom Kippur afternoon, we discuss Jewish books and the children of the minyan present a dramatic interpretation of the story of Jonah.
