This High Holiday season, create your own prayer to communicate with your Biblical, pop cultural, and personal ancestors. Join Kohanot (Hebrew Priestesses) and educators Sarah Chandler and Annie Cohen on a time-traveling adventure to reconnect with and reclaim often-forgotten ancestral folk traditions, as we learn together about the Eastern European practices of grave measuring, soul candles, and traditional women’s prayers. Once you register, you will receive the Zoom link for this webinar.

In the spirit of folk tradition that these practices represent, everyone is welcome to join. You will walk away with a customized prayer as well as resources for additional ancestral rituals.

Everyone who registers for this webinar will receive the Zoom link and a copy of the recording. Pen and paper optional.

High Holidays at Home is a platform for DIY Jewish New Year rituals, curated especially for celebrating meaningfully at home. We’re created by the team behind Haggadot.com, and we have everything you need to make this moment special – whether you’re looking to reflect, remember or connect.
