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.

We’re excited to invite you and your little ones to a brand-new, kid-friendly Shabbat experience led by Lauren Kalmanson. Join us once a month for Tot Shabbat, a warm and playful hour designed just for children ages 1 to 5. We’ll have stories, songs, and activities that help introduce our youngest members to the beauty of Shabbat and Jewish traditions in a way that’s fun and engaging. From 10:30 am until noon. Bring your kids, let them sing along, and watch them discover the joy of Shabbat in a welcoming and lively atmosphere. Then join us for lunch! We can’t wait to celebrate together.
