In an unprecedented move, the Chicago Cubs gave one of their fans, Steve Bartman, a World Series ring to apologize for the actions of the team and fans over the previous 13 years. Use this true story to explore what it means for individuals to ask for forgiveness on the part of a whole group. Participants will consider what it means for a community to do teshuvah (repent/return).

This activity includes movement and media options.

Additional Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur resources are available from JTeach.org here.
