Yom Kippur

Posted by Terry Nelson on Oct 8th, 2008

The Day of Atonement - sort of a Jewish Good Friday.

When my mother’s brother told my brother that we may indeed have Jewish blood, I began to observe this fast day of the Jewish calendar.  That was about 35 years ago.  This year Yom Kippur began at sundown today and goes until sundown tomorrow, October 9.

Always pray for our elder brothers and sisters in the faith.
