Friday Evening Service

Every Friday at 6:15 pm
Make a break with the work week and recharge your spirit as we warmly welcome Shabbat together. Once a month, usually on the first Shabbat of the month, we have a Musical Kabbalat Shabbat Service, with instruments and lively congregational participation. One Shabbat of the month, usually at a Young Family Kabbalat Shabbat Service,  we include Children's Birthday Blessings, with Shabbat blessings, a small gift for birthday children, and a festive oneg Shabbat. Also on the first Shabbat of most months, our Shabbat Dinner Series offers the opportunity to share a meal as a community and to hear from noted scholars and rabbis on topics of social, intellectual and spiritual interest.
