Kol Tzedek Yom Kippur services are steeped in the liturgy of the high holidays and also include creative readings, reflections delivered by congregants on liturgical and chosen themes, and traditional torah reading.  During the morning service, we also bring all the young children upstairs to help us process with the torah.

The Haftorah reading for Yom Kippur day is Isaiah 58 which states:  

 Is such the fast that I have chosen? the day for a man to afflict his soul?...Wilt thou call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the LORD?..Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house?
