A Unique High Holiday Experience
Panim Hadashot is offering a completely unique approach to the High Holidays that combines the gastronomic with the spiritual, the intellectual with the emotional, and ritual practice with meaning. Please take a look at our unique program by clicking on High Holidays with Panim Hadashot. Below is a quick summary of what will be happening.

Rosh Hashannah Feast
We bring you the inspired teaching and leading of the novelist-theologian-ritualist, Mary Engel, who will share with us a remarkable ritual feast called the Yehi Ratzon Seder on the eve of Rosh Hashannah on Monday, 10/3. Taking from rich Sephardic and other Jewish traditions she has prepared a seder which at which we learn the text, eat the text, and chant the text. This is the first time in Seattle that a Rosh Hashannah Seder is being offered to the public. Please rsvp and send in reservation checks as indicated at our web site early since we only have limited space for the seder.

High Holiday Programs: Rosh Hashannah and Yom Kippur Afternoons and Kol Nidre
Sometimes the endless services on the high holidays obscure the single most important activity of the High Holidays-Teshuvah-the act of reparing relationships with our fellows and with God. Rabbi Dov Gartenberg, Founder of Panim Hadashot, teams up with the renowned experts on marriage and family, Drs. John and Julie Gottman, to teach and explore the application of Teshuvah in our interpersonal relations and in our spiritual lives. 10/4 and 10/13 in the afternoon.

Rabbi Gartenberg will also share with a wider community the unique approach to Torah developed by Panim Hadashot this past year. Share in our interactive Torah readings which open up the meaning of this ancient text for our lives. 10/4 and 10/13 in the afternoon
And join Rabbi Gartenberg on Kol Nidre for a unique 'service of the ambivalent' which is a daring exploration of the meaning of prayer for people who have trouble believing in God. 10/12 in the evening.
