September 11th

September 11 is National Patriot Day. By presidential proclamation, Americans are called on to observe Patriot Day each September 11

with a moment of silence beginning at 8:46 AM Eastern Daylight Time, the time the first plane struck the North Tower of the World Trade

Center on September 11, 2001. Individuals observe the day with ceremonies and activities, including remembrance services.

Two New Year celebrations take place in September. September 11 is the Ethiopian New Year (Enkutatash). The celebration is both

religious and secular with the day beginning with church services followed by the family meal. After attending

church in the morning, families gather to share a traditional meal of injera (flat bread) and wat (stew). Later in the

day, young girls donning new clothes, gather daisies and present friends with a bouquet,

singing New Year¡¯s songs. And September 24 (sunset) ¨C September 26 (nightfall) is Rosh

Hashanah, a holiday recognizing the Jewish New Year. It is the first of the Jewish High

Holy Days, and is marked by prayer, repentance, and rest. It is both a time of rejoicing and

of serious introspection, a time to celebrate the completion of another year while also

taking stock of one's life.
