Services & Dinners

SERVICES AND EVENTS ARE A MIX OF IN-PERSON, ZOOM AND HYBRID

All are welcome to our High Holiday services and events. We do not charge for tickets; we are grateful for donations. See information below, and do RSVP to the Beth Ami office if you are a non-member guest or bring guests.

PLEASE CHECK THE ONLINE  CALENDAR AS DATES AND TIMES MAY VARY DURING HOLIDAY SEASON

Shabbat morning services are at 9:45 a.m. in person and on Zoom, preceded by Torah study with Rabbi Koas at 9:00 a.m.  When Rabbi Koas is not here, there is no 9:00 am study session and lay-led services begin at 9:45 a.m. A light potluck lunch follows all Shabbat morning services. See Kashrut guidelines Our Shabbat services are a true hybrid with active participants on Zoom. Masks and hand sanitizer are available; please attend on zoom instead of in person if you are ill. See Zoom links page for the link.

Friday evenings in person and on Zoom with Rabbi Ron Koas.
6:00 pm Kabbalat Shabbat service, including meditation with Rob Gitlin. Once a month, when there is no monthly Shabbat dinner, dinner after services is potluck. See Kashrut guidelines.

One Friday night of the month Shabbat dinners at CBA: Join us for Shir Shabbatt services with Rabbi Koas and the musicians of Klezmer Creek at 6:00 pm live and on Zoom, followed by a scrumptious milchik or pareve dinner prepared by David Kahn, with help from many volunteers. Please make your reservation by the preceding Wednesday at noon.  $20 for members age 12 and up. $25 for age 12 and up non-members. $9 for Under 12. Some scholarships available.

On one Friday a month, Leah Gerber leads a short and very sweet musical Sing In Shabbat service at 6:00 pm, concluding with our communal Zoom Kiddush (have your wine handy!) at about 6:30 pm. We hope that joining as a community in this way, will lift all of our spirits, with the beauty and holiness of Shabbat.
