Rabbi T’mimah Ickovits will lead creative services by infusing ancient wisdom with a contemporary, egalitarian, and socially progressive awareness. Her ‘davvenen’ is influenced by Kabbalah, Mizrahi customs, Reconstructionism, Orthodoxy, Reform Judaism, Conservative Judaism, and Hassidism blending tradition with modern liturgy and music. Meditation, movement, and singing are part of our prayers. The timing of New Orleans LimmudFest is potent; this week it's not Shabbat alone: it is also Rosh Hodesh Nissan (the new moon of Aries), and we start a new book of Torah, Vayikra (Invocations). It is a Jewish "triple play."
