WATCH: Thousands of Jewish worshippers gathered this week at Jerusalem’s Western Wall to attend "Selichot", a traditional prayer of repentance held just before the Jewish new year - Rosh Hashana - begins. Beautiful!
Selichot communal prayers are for Divine forgiveness, said during the High Holiday season or on Jewish fast days.

Due to the tremendous interest in participating in the central selichot services, the decision was made this year to hold fourteen events accompanied by a cantor and amplification in order to spread the crowds and make it possible for all who wish to participate to come. The selichot services will be broadcast live on the Foundation website for those who are not able to come to the Western Wall but who wish to participate in these moving services.

The Western Heritage Foundation: The recitation of selichot at the Western Wall Plaza unites the Jewish nation. All the various streams stand together pouring out their souls and accepting the yoke of the Kingdom of Heaven during these important days of atonement, calling out together – “O Master of Forgiveness, Examiner of Hearts, we have sinned before You, have mercy upon us.”

We call upon the public to come say selichot earlier in the month, and not only in the last days of selichot, in order to spread the crowds and maintain the health and safety of all who come to the Western Wall.
