Yom Kippur 2029

The Day of Atonement, which closes the Ten Days of Awe: return and repentance, and a full day’s fast.

In 2029: Wednesday 19 September, in Masorti, Reform and Karaite practice alike.

Like every day of the Jewish year, it begins at sunset the evening before. Karaite dates are projected, and may move a day once the new moon is sighted.
