SUMMARY:Yom Kippur
DESCRIPTION:The High Holy Days invite us to slow down in a world that pulls us toward distraction\, urgency\, and disconnection. Together\, we will practice staying present to ourselves\, our communities\, and the world around us. We believe that a Judaism Beyond Zionism calls us not to look elsewhere for belonging or liberation\, but to root deeply where we are: cultivating presence\, telling the truth\, grieving what is broken\, celebrating what is beautiful\, and transforming our spiritual practice into action. \nYom Kippur is a time for deep reflection on the past year\, honestly exploring where we have missed the mark\, both individually and collectively. Through unique Al Cheyt prayers\, we are called to take responsibility for our  mis-steps. Our Teshuva Workbook helps guide our efforts to do so in meaningful ways so we can more fully live in alignment with our values.  \nThe Yizkor service provides a meaningful time to reflect on the lives of loved ones\, mentors\, and martyrs that have passed from this world\, giving us space to breathe into the depth of our feelings of loss and sorrow. \nWe end with a delicious vegetarian community potluck for break-fast. A time to celebrate and bask in community.  \nGrounded in Jewish Renewal prayers\, rituals\, and songs and a liberatory vision of Judaism\, our services weave together inspiring teachings from Rabbi Cat Zavis\, moving music and prayer\, mindfulness\, poetry\, conversation\, guest speakers\, opportunities for collective action\, and delicious shared meals. Together\, we pray not to escape the world\, but to become more fully present within it. \nYom Kippur Speakers:Rabbi Cat ZavisTiny (Lisa) Gray-GarciaHanan Huneidi \nMusic with:Rowan Katz\, High Holidays Musical DirectorJan Padover\, PercussionNathan Swedlow\, Upright BassBen Klausner\, Guitar \n\n\nYom Kippur Includes:\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKol NidreSunday\, September 20\, 6:00pm-9:30pm PDT \nChildren's Program: Tikkun In Action6:00pm -9:30pm \n\n\n\nCollective Prayer and song led by Rowan Katz and team of musicians\nPowerful words from Rabbi Cat Zavis\nSelichot\nPoetry by Hanan Huneidi\nRabbi Cat’s Al Cheyt for modern times\n\n\n\n\n\nYom Kippur Morning ServiceMonday\, September 21\, 9:30am-2:00pm PDT \nChildren's Program: Tikkun In Action9:40am -2:00pm \n\n\n\nMorning prayers\nTorah Service\nMeditation\nGuest Speaker Tiny (Lisa) Gray-Garcia from POOR Magazine\n\n\n\n\n\nYom Kippur Afternoon ServiceSunday\, September 21\, 4:00pm - 7:30pm PDT \nPotluck Break-Fast:7:30pm  \n\n\n\nYizkor\nMincha (Torah and haftorah service)\nNe’ilah \nBreak fast\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChildren's Programming:Tikkun in Action\nThrough themes of tikkun olam (repairing the world) and Palestinian solidarity\, children will engage in art projects\, story time\, and other interactive activities in a warm\, welcoming environment. \nProgramming is best geared for children ages 3–10\, though all ages are welcome.

SUMMARY:Rosh Hashanah Day 1
DESCRIPTION:The High Holy Days invite us to slow down in a world that pulls us toward distraction\, urgency\, and disconnection. Together\, we will practice staying present to ourselves\, our communities\, and the world around us. We believe that a Judaism Beyond Zionism calls us not to look elsewhere for belonging or liberation\, but to root deeply where we are: cultivating presence\, telling the truth\, grieving what is broken\, celebrating what is beautiful\, and transforming our spiritual practice into action. \nGrounded in Jewish Renewal prayers\, rituals\, and songs and a liberatory vision of Judaism\, our services weave together inspiring teachings from Rabbi Cat Zavis\, moving music and prayer\, mindfulness\, poetry\, conversation\, guest speakers\, opportunities for collective action\, and delicious shared meals. Together\, we pray not to escape the world\, but to become more fully present within it. \nRosh Hashanah Speakers:Rabbi Cat Zavis Patricia Contrera FloresRep.

SUMMARY:Grieving in Public: a Tisha b’av Park Service (In-Person in Berkeley)
DESCRIPTION:Date: July 22\, 2026Time: 7:30-9:30pmLocation: In person at Live Oak Park in Berkeley - exact location shared upon registrationFood: Sundown on July 22nd marks the beginning of the 25-hour Tisha b'Av fast. If you'd like to share a pre-fast meal\, join us at the park at 6:30pm. Feel free to bring pizza from Cheeseboard or another nearby spot. We'll ask everyone to finish eating before the service begins\, in keeping with the fast.Covid Precautions: Masks are optional\, we will be outdoors. More Access Information below event description.Questions?: rabbi@beyttikkun.orgIf you are not in the Bay Area\, we have created a toolkit to help you organize your own Tisha b'Av service. Learn more here or register for our Tisha b'Av toolkit below to receive a free download. \nEvent Description:Tisha b’Av\, often understood as the saddest day in Jewish tradition\, invites us to grieve openly. \nIn this moment of ongoing violence and loss\, many of us are carrying grief that feels too large to hold alone: genocide and ethnic cleansing in Gaza\, the West Bank\, and Jerusalem; kidnapping\, torture\, and family separation by the hands of ICE; escalating attacks on trans and queer communities; ongoing war and militarism; and the heartbreaks of our own local and personal lives. \nJoin us in Berkeley for an outdoor Tisha b’Av gathering of collective mourning\, reflection\, and ritual. Together\, we will honor both historical and present-day suffering and consider what Jewish tradition asks of us in times of devastation. \nGathering on the grass by (battery-powered) candlelight\, we will read Rabbi Cat Zavis’ translations and interpretations of the Book of Lamentations\, connecting ancient texts of destruction and exile with contemporary experiences of empire\, violence\, and collective grief. We believe that creating a world rooted in justice and peace requires the courage to witness what is true. \nAs Rabbi Nachman taught: “There is nothing more whole than a broken heart.” \nTisha b’Av creates sacred space for grief\, rage\, and mourning—not in isolation\, but in community. When we gather to grieve together\, we remember we are not alone. Through shared sorrow\, we cultivate compassion\, connection\, and the possibility of transformation. \nItems to Bring or Prepare:Bring a blanket or chair to sit on or to share with others. \nCost: Attendance is free of cost. \nWe welcome donations to support Rabbi Cat’s participation in the Rabbis for Ceasefire solidarity delegation during the Olive Harvest in Palestine this October. If you make a donation\, please add this note: "Olive Harvest" \nAccess Information: \n\nWheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible\nBathrooms: Public bathrooms available\nSeating/Standing: We will be sitting on grass - you are welcome to bring a chair or blanket to sit on\, or stay standing\nPublic Transportation Access: Live Oak Park is accessible by AC Transit bus lines with stops within a short walk of the park. The park is also about a 20–25 minute walk or a short bus ride from the Downtown Berkeley BART station. \nCarpooling: Self-organized community carpooling available
