 TRADITIONAL KAPPAROT CEREMONY

 

Sunday, September 16th

come by, anytime, between 11:00 - 12:30pm   
at Congregation Beth Tefillah

Live fish will be available, or you may bring your own charity money ($15-$20 per person as is customary) and Rabbi Allouche will be on hand to guide you through the entire process.   

The age-old custom of "Kaparot" is traditionally performed on the eve of Yom Kippur, by grasping a live chicken, a Kosher fish or charity money and moving one of them around one's head three times; symbolically transferring one's sins to the chicken, fishor money. The chicken, fish or money are then donated to the poor. 
 

 ALL WELCOME!!
