Saturday, September 9, 2023 - Selichot Dinner, Film and Service - 6:00 P.M.

Join our Temple Emanuel community and clergy to begin the High Holy Day season with Selichot, a traditional night of introspection and prayer. In partnership with the Larry Hodes Movie and Deli series, we will be screening "Road to Eden." This feature-length documentary film captures the inspirational journey of Dan Nichols, a tour de force of modern Jewish music, who took his show on the road for the Jewish fall festival of Sukkot in October 2011. Dan and his incredible band, Eighteen, loaded into an RV and wandered through the Deep South. 

This time of year is about getting out, stretching ourselves, opening up to new places, people and ideas. This is the story of what happened when one artist with a message of love and hope embraced Judaism's profound message: we are all traveling together on a road to a better future, a time when the Earth can become a true Eden for all humankind. As we start our High Holy Day season with Selichot, we remember that the time is now, and our mission, should we choose to accept it, is to get up, get out and make it happen. The film will be be followed by discussion and a brief prayer service led by our clergy. RSVP for dinner by September 5.
