Shemini Atzeret Services
As soon as Yom Kippur ends, we move from the realm of the soul and plant our feet firmly back on the ground. For seven days we eat (and for some, sleep) in a sukkah, a makeshift hut that is just susceptible enough to the elements to remind us of our vulnerability and also the blessings of security.
Join your fellow IKARites as we work together to participate in our democracy and help turn out the vote for our shared values, locally and nationally.

From thought-provoking, to soul-stretching, to comedic gold, our 5785 High Holy Days sermons and talks are guaranteed to leave you with a new concept to ponder.
This carousel features timely events and media. We invite you to move around and explore. Check out “This week at IKAR” to see what we’re up to! We hope you find something meaningful.
Fusing piety and hutzpah, obligation, and inspiration, IKAR is a dynamic, multi-generational community that fosters a yearning for personal, purposeful, creative engagement in Jewish life, particularly among young and disaffected Jews. Rooted in Los Angeles and reaching globally, we strive to actively and intentionally celebrate the vibrancy and diversity of the Jewish people.
Our membership is an expression of individual commitments and a way for each person to expand their Jewish horizons through learning and spiritual growth.
Justice
“Love your neighbor, and love yourself. That is the whole Torah. All the rest is commentary” — Hillel
We believe that the active pursuit of justice and dignity for all is a core expression of our Jewish spiritual and religious selves, and we integrate that belief into everything we do at IKAR. Minyan Tzedek is how we harness the organizing power of our entire community to work toward the world as it ought to be. Our goal is 100% community participation through one of our four paths: Feeding Our Neighbors, Green Action, IKAR Community Organizing, and Global Partnership.
