Gatherings & the Festival Year
Living Promise keeps the richest festival calendar of any order — the Jewish year as a masterclass in covenant memory.
Shabbat crowns every week. The High Holy Days — Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur — are the year’s summit: ten days of awe, repentance, and return. Sukkot follows with its fragile booths and wild joy; Passover retells the Exodus at seder tables worldwide; Shavuot celebrates the giving of Torah with all-night study; Hanukkah and Purim remember deliverance with light and laughter.
Full dates for every festival and all community gatherings are at the Living Promise calendar. Guests are welcome at public celebrations — come to the seder, stay for the argument about the afikomen, leave understanding why this people endures.
