QUAD CITIES (October 8, 2019) — Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, begins tonight at sundown and ends at sundown, tomorrow night.

Yom Kippur is the holiest day of the year for Jews around the world, and is a day of fasting, prayer, and repenting for one's sins.

"Gmar hatimah tovah" from the Board and Staff of the Jewish Federation of the Quad Cities, and may you all be inscribed in the book of life.

The Mission of the Jewish Federation of the Quad Cities is:

Preserving, protecting, enriching and enhancing Jewish communal life and the well-being of Jews locally, in Israel and throughout the rest of the world, through the principles of Torah (Jewish learning), Tikkun Olam (repairing the world), Tzedakah (charity and justice), and Chesed (caring and compassion).
