By the time you are reading this, Rosh Hashana services will have already taken place. If you did not join us for this service, there is still time to arrange to be a part of the Yom Kippur service. The services will start at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, October 3 at the Sun Lakes Methodist Church located at 9248 E. Riggs Rd in Sun Lakes, Arizona.

The next day, October 4, morning services will start at 10:30 a.m., followed by the afternoon and Yizkor service at 3:00 p.m.

And, if you missed the group of people blowing the shofar, it will happen once again at the Yom Kippur closing services. This is the first year that we will be having not one, not two, but six women taking part in the tradition of shofar.

Come and join us!
