B'nai Zion Tashlich: Cast Your Sins Into the Water
Tuesday, Sep 23rd 4:00p to 5:00p
On the afternoon of Rosh Hashanah, the ceremony called Tashlich is traditionally observed. Jews go to the ocean or a stream or river to pray and cast sins into the water. This year, we are being more considerate to the animals in the water, we will be throwing food that is safe for the animals and the water (which will be provided when you arrive). We will be at the Duck Pond on East Kings Highway near Preston Ave. Bring your Shofar.
