Yom Kippur 2021
Prayers in the Park
Yom Kippur is the holiest day of the Jewish calendar. Whilst the most important mitzvot of the day relate to fasting and avoiding work, prayer is an essential part of the day.
We are fortunate and grateful that the community has been given the green light by NSW Health to conduct short outdoor services within strict guidelines.
Below you will find the times and locations for the services on Yom Kippur Day, Thursday, 16th September 2021.
