SUMMARY:Sukkot: A Festival of Ingathering
DESCRIPTION:We gather in the Sukkah to perform the ancient Temple ceremony of Hakel – when men, women, children and even strangers were brought together to celebrate the harvest and pray to the Divine (as stated in Devarim 31:10 13). We will practice Upatzim, where each of us will call on our ancestors, teachers and mentors to join us. We will then read poetry and offer prayers, including Tefilat Geshem, the prayer for rain, using a version where we invoke our female biblical ancestors. After small group sharing for guided contemplation and reflection, we will end with the Sukkot Temple ritual of the pouring of wine and water.\nParticipants are invited to bring rain sticks and fruit to share.\nIn-Person in the Chochmat HaLev Courtyard\n\n\nFree for members;  Suggested donation $18 for non-members\n\n\n		\n			\n									Register Here\n					 ( https://chochmat.shulcloud.com/form/sukkot-festival-ingathering.html )\n		Leah Shelleda taught World Religions, Philosophy and Cultural Studies at the College of Marin. She is a published, prize-winning poet and a ritualist who combines ancient practices, contemporary values and deep compassion in the ceremonies she creates.
