High Holy Day Message

Kol Ami is a home of joyful Judaism for all — a place to find inspiration, belonging, and strength. As we enter the High Holy Days, we invite you to watch this year’s message from Rabbi Malcolm and Cantor Jen. Thanks to a generous $15,000 matching grant, your support this season will go twice as far. L’Shana Tovah!
