Kauai High Holidays and August 15 Kauai Shabbat Schedules

Kauai High HolidaysKauai Shabbat August 15, 2015

First, please join in our next  service. We've had to reschedule from August 1 to August 15. St. Michael's Church needed use of their facilities, so we'll gather two weeks later. Our President Emeritus Marty Kahn will lead services, with help from Greg Meyers chanting Torah, and a parsha group discussion led by an erudite member of our congregation.Plan to stay after the service as we gather for a delicious oneg and, if we're lucky, some jokes from our Comedian Emeritus (also Marty).

  • Rosh Hashanah on Monday 9/14 at 10 am with kiddush, apples and honey, lovely luncheon to follow.

  • Yom Kippur Day on Wednesday 9/23 at 10 am.
  • Yom Kippur adult group discussion with Cantor Ken on Wednesday 9/23 at 3:45 followed by Yizkor and Neilah, and a profuse array of delicious food for our break-the-fast.
