Cantor Leon’s Spiritual Exercise for the High Holy Days. 

The topic (theme) for this year’s spiritual exercise is: Jewish Ideas of Leadership.  Your reflections and insightful thoughts about this theme can be shared and be a part of a in-person discussion that Cantor Leon holds during Minchah on Yom Kippur.  Cantor Leon has an introduction and provides some guidance for you to consider and space to express your thoughts in a simple document.  See the document at this link:  Spiritual Exercise HHD 2025-5786.  Complete the second page of the document and submit in whatever form you wish (digital, hard-copy) to Cantor Leon at any time before early afternoon of Yom Kippur.  Everyone’s comments are welcome and valuable to our community.  Thanks for participating.  L’Shanah Tovah.
