A traditional prelude to the Jewish New Year, we gather this night to sing a service that highlights the themes and ideas of the holiday season. Following the Sephardic calendaring tradition, we inaugurate this service at the beginning of the month of Elul. The evening begins with a dinner where we'll introduce and honor new members of the B’nai Emunah family.  Dinner begins at 6:00 p.m., prior to a musical Selichot service starting at 7:00 p.m. The evening culminates with blasts from the shofar as we begin our preparations for Rosh Ha-Shanah and Yom Kippur.
