Preaching Goes Viral

Look at this Rosh Hashanah as a bespoke experience

Blessing or reason for gratitude

Silver lining: Blessed, grateful, or upbeat about the pandemic

You will also have the opportunity to gain some expertise, whether by familiarizing yourself with the local history, phrasebook or map. You can personalize your itinerary, decide to linger at the cafe with a charming view or get delightfully lost in a labyrinth of alleys. Reframing this year’s High Holidays as a bespoke experience can liberate us from the daunting pressure to recreate the High Holidays version we are used to. Rather than consoling ourselves with a homemade reproduction, we can take charge of curating our individual High Holidays. We can be more deliberate in the pace of our prayers, lingering over piyyutim or liturgy that resonates, and indulge in a tune we are fond of.
