Kol Nidre

The first communal prayer service of Yom Kippur actually takes place immediately prior to sunset on the evening of Yom Kippur. This service is called Kol Nidrei (“All Vows”). These are the first words of a special legal formula that is recited at the beginning of this service and is chanted three times. This legal ritual is believed to have developed in early medieval times as a result of persecutions against the Jews. At various times in Jewish history, Jews were forced to convert to either Christianity or Islam upon pain of death. Our Kol Nidre service will be at Brio Clubhouse, 230 W Brio Clubhouse Dr. Washington, UT.  Please RSVP to events@beitchaverimutah.org.
