Shabbat
A Day of Rest and Renewal
As God rested on the seventh day, so we celebrate rest and the Divine every shabbat. Please join us for our Shabbat offerings whether for all in the main sanctuary, or our youth and teen Shabbat programing.
We celebrate Shabbat with warmth and ruach (spirit). Recognizing that our youngest members are our future, we also offer a diversity of services for children of all ages and levels.
