The month of Elul calls us to get ready: not just logistically, but spiritually, for the Days of Awe. In this three-part Mussar series, we’ll explore a path of middot (soul traits) to help soften, strengthen, and awaken the heart as we move toward Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.
Each session will focus on one trait, using Mussar texts, guided reflection, and group conversation to help us deepen our personal practice of teshuvah (return). Come for all three sessions or drop in as you’re able. Each session stands on its own, offering meaningful tools for soul-prep this season.

Session 2: Anavah (Humility)

Session 3: Bitachon (Trust)
Monday, September 15, 6:30–8 p.m.

Letting go into what we cannot control, while holding fast to hope.
