ReCollect/Yizkor: A Kaddish Gathering

As we leave the high holidays and enter into the harvest holiday of Sukkot, the Jewish calendar offers us an opportunity to invite the ancestors who came before us into temporary shelters (Sukkot). These huts serve as memory holders for both biblical ancestors and our own who we love and miss. Sukkot is the first of three ancient pilgrimage holidays when collective community gathers to remember (Yizkor). Together, will create our temporary shelter online.

Lab/Shul’s ReCollect/Yizkor is a seasonal gathering to remember our loved ones, share stories, lift memory, and say Kaddish, the ancient memorial prayer, together. Throughout the year, ReCollect meets near or on the times of memory (Yizkor) on the Jewish calendar (Yom Kippur, Passover, Shavuot, and in this month Sukkot).

Whether you’ve experienced a recent loss, are remembering a loved one who passed long ago, or showing up in support of community, you are welcome here. Together, we acknowledge feelings of loss that can be particularly painful as we anticipate empty chairs at our tables and holes in our hearts.
