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.
Shabbat Services during Covid-19 Restrictions
Ohr Kodesh is offering four ways to participate in services during the limitations imposed by the pandemic. Join us, in whatever manner is best suited to your needs.
Before Shabbat, download and print your preferred siddur service from Siddur Sim Shalom and Siddur Lev Shalem along with this week's parashat from the Etz Hayyim Chumash.
