Yom Kippur Morning Study
Poetry as Prayer – Why does it work?
Poetry fills the High Holy Day Machzor (Prayerbook) and deepens our spiritual experiences. Please join us to listen to congregants read a selection of poems and then engage in discussion about why poetry as prayer works (or doesn’t), what poetry does that is different from liturgy, and how we respond to poems read aloud. Michael Kuhne, past president and former English professor at Minneapolis College, facilitates.
