Sukkot, Hebrew word meaning “booths” or “huts,” refers to the Jewish festival of giving thanks for the fall harvest, as well as the commemoration of the forty years of Jewish wandering in the desert after Sinai. Sukkot is celebrated five days after Yom Kippur on the 15th day of Tishrei and is marked by several distinct traditions, including dwelling and eating in our sukkah (booth).
Sunday School will meet mid-morning at 10:30AM to discuss the holiday of Sukkot and its cultural significance. A lively service filled with singing and BYO bagged lunch will follow at 11:00AM. Desserts and drinks will be provided.
