Our guitar-led Shabbat services combine singing, deep prayer, and discussion, and invite serious spiritual engagement even to participants with little Hebrew background.
Kabbalat Shabbat: Our musical Friday night Shabbat service will uplift your soul with classic & contemporary Hebrew songs, readings from a variety of traditions, and Torah discussion.
Shabbat mornings are the highlight of our community. We offer a participatory, musical, easy to follow service which includes a discussion of a selection from the Torah, as well as a Torah reading in Hebrew and English. We also offer a program for little children of songs and stories and an activity, and a “big kids Torah study,” offering serious study of Torah and other Jewish texts on a selected topic for the week.
Kids: We believe children are an essential part of our community, and welcome them at all services. We offer childrens’ services at all Shabbat morning services.
Covid Safety: We believe there is never a reason to compromise on safety. We currently hold monthly Saturday morning services outdoors & socially distanced (10 feet between participants). Our next Shabbat service is January 9th; we hope you can join us! We also hold some Saturday night programs over zoom; please contact us for more details.
