American Jewish Experiences of the Pandemic

Collected Item: “High Holidays on Zoom, including Zoom Choir”

Title

High Holidays on Zoom, including Zoom Choir

Description

Rabbi Sunny Schnitzer and BJC Zoom Choir singing on Yom Kippur 2020, Bethesda Jewish Congregation, Bethesda, Maryland.

Narrative

Before participating in Zoom Shabbat and High Holiday services, I had no idea that virtual religious services could be effective. But, I learned that it is possible to connect to the rabbi and congregation virtually. Most importantly, I realized that a spiritual experience can occur by oneself, at home, and looking at a computer screen. Amazing as it seems, it is true for me.
