The version of the Ten Commandments and the revelation at Sinai that we read about in Deuteronomy are slightly different from what we read back in Exodus. How do we need to keep listening for God’s voice and debating what constitutes an ethical life? Our Friday night service begins at 6:00 p.m. and concludes around 6:50 p.m. This week Heidi Wortzman will lead the davening and Phyl Hewson will share a teaching.
Our service is designed to create a buffer between the work week and Shabbat rest. We aim to make the atmosphere like a family shabbat table complete with Candle Lighting, Blessing one another, Kiddush, and Motzei. Before and after the service we take time to check in with one another and share greetings (feel free to log on early). Our service has been abridged for ZOOM but includes familiar and new melodies, readings from the margins of the siddur, and some learning.
SHABBAT MORNING:
Back to the Start
In Va’Etchanan (Deut. 3:23-7:11), we revisit Sinai and hear the Ten Commandments once more. How do we relate to law? What does it mean for a new generation to experience the covenant for themselves?
Our Shabbat morning service begins at 10 a.m. in our Seresky Sanctuary, and you can join us in person or on Livestream. Services will be led by Cantor Stephen Abramowitz, Linda Dietrich will read Torah, Marci Shaw will read Haftorah, and Alan Bulotsky and Carol Turkewitz will offer teachings. Services will conclude around noon and will be followed by a kiddush luncheon.
Shabbat Shalom, Rabbi Lisa Feld
Simcha Shabbat & Kiddush
We encourage you to sponsor a kiddush to mark a simcha, celebrate a birthday, anniversary, commemorate a yahrzeit, honor an individual's accomplishment, or just to enhance our Shabbat. Since not every kiddush is sponsored, we hope you will consider a contribution to the kiddush fund so we can provide a kiddush every week. All sponsors are much appreciated and will be acknowledged.
We have streamlined this process to make it easier than ever-- come see our new kiddush sponsorship page on the website!
