Yom Kippur (יום כיפור “Day of Atonement”) is the holiest day of the Jewish year, and brings the High Holy Days to a close. It is a day set aside to atone for the sins of the past year, and is observed by fasting and prayer. The liturgy for Yom Kippur contains some of the most ancient prayers and melodies of the Jewish spiritual tradition.
Tune in for the annual broadcast of the Kol Nidre Service from Rochester’s Temple B’rith Kodesh, made possible with support from the Louis S. and Molly B. Wolk Foundation.

Temple B'rith Kodesh was founded in 1848 as an Orthodox synagogue with 12 members. It is the oldest Jewish congregation and the largest Reform temple in the greater Rochester area.
