During Yom Kippur we must ask ourselves: have we really asked forgiveness from all whom we have hurt? Have we resolved all misunderstandings? Have we made amends for all the problems we have created? It is important to remember that during Yom Kippur we strive to put our relationships with other people and with our community in order.

Yom Kippur is the holiest day of the year, a day of good will and of atonement for sins before the Creator.
