Havurah Shalom Services – Tashlich Service & Vegetarian Potluck @ Sellwood Riverfront Park
Oct 3 @ 4:00 pm – 5:30 pm

During this season of repentance, we are called upon to do T’shuvah, to return to God in sincerity and in truth. Please join the Havurah community as we gather at Sellwood Riverfront Park to perform the Tashlich ceremony. We seek to symbolically “cast away” our accumulated sins and transgressions, so that we may purify our hearts and our souls as the New Year begins.

We will meet at Picnic Area B. Please bring something to share at the vegetarian potluck immediately following Tashlich. What to bring by Last Name: A-G Salad or Dessert/H-Z Vegetarian Main Dish. And bring drinks for yourself and your family. Havurah will provide some drinks and ice. And don’t forget the breadcrumbs!

Please RSVP here by Sept. 19 with the names of family members and the names and ages of your children planning to attend.

Led by Rebecca Darling-Budner. Music by Steve Mesulam, Scott Snyder, and Aaron Pearlman.
