The evening of Yom Kippur begins with the lighting of Memorial candles -come early if you wish to light one – followed by the haunting melody of Kol Nidre. Some of us wear white garments and tallitot/prayer shawls, while (only) those who are able begin their fast from life-sustaining food and drink. Please note that we begin promptly with the instrumental rendition of Kol Nidre.
