Our Friday night service begins at 6:00 p.m. and concludes around 6:50 p.m. 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, Motzei and Angel Cards. 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.
Reb Josh Schreiber will lead the davening and I will offer a teaching about forgiveness. As we prepare for Rosh Hashanah how can we prepare to apologize and receive apologies? What are some of the techniques for supporting our desire for change in the New Year?
Our service begins at 10 a.m. in our sanctuary (and sitting in our new, comfortable, chairs). Reb Josh Schreiber will lead the davening and offer a teaching on the 4th haftorah of consolation, connecting the reading to our season. Services conclude around noon and are following by kiddush luncheon. You can also join us on live stream using the links below.
On this first shabbat of the month we celebrate simcha shabbat, acknowledging special moments in people’s lives during the month of September.
