Tashlick
Rosh Hashana Day Two:
Tashlick Afternoon Service
Sunday, September 20th 2009
We hold Tashlick Services at Will Rogers State Beach Park immediately after the Rosh Hashana Day Two Morning Service and Luncheon. We gather at the beach at approximately 2 pm and conclude around 4 pm.
Tashlick, meaning “to cast away”, is always celebrated on the second day of Rosh Hashana in the afternoon. We will enter into the traditional Tashlick ceremony: writing down on little pieces of paper (from our Book of Life) our “sins”, our negative, misdirected habits or patterns that we want to cast away, then casting the papers (and hopefully our “sins”) into a body of water – the Pacific Ocean.
Please bring a pencil or pen, paper and yourself to the ceremony.
