AV Coordinator Luna teaches us a little bit about the High Holy Days in Judaism – Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.
Moment of Perspective – Someone Among You is a Messiah – AJ Fox
The opening words are Let Astonishment be Possible, by Rev Gretchen Haley.
Whatever you have come in
anticipating
Whatever you expect
Or worry
For our world, for the future
For our lives –
Let it go
Make space in your heart
To be surprised
Make room in your soul
For a new story to take shape
Let astonishment be possible
At this life that remains
a miracle
Imagine here the bursting of joy

The closing words are The Humanity, Bravery, and Goodness Calling Us Forth, by Rev Sara La Wall.
When the pull to disappear takes hold
with all its harsh realities
May we conjure up that fierce love
to bring our hopeful vision into being,
Discovering the humanity, bravery, goodness
still calling us forth.
May we breathe into that story and make it come alive.
