Services & Dinners
SERVICES AND EVENTS ARE A MIX OF IN-PERSON, ZOOM AND HYBRID
PLEASE CHECK THE ONLINE CALENDAR AS DATES AND TIMES MAY VARY
Shabbat morning services are 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 9:30 a.m. A light lunch follows all Shabbat morning services. (See below.) 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. 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. $18 for members age 12 and up. $24 for age 12 and up non-members. $9 for Under 12. Some scholarships available. Call 707-360-3000 or email office@bethamisr.org. FEBRUARY DINNER WILL BE ON FEBRUARY 21.
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. NEXT SING IN SHABBAT WILL BE FEBRUARY 14.
Saturday Shabbat morning Torah study with Rabbi Ron Koas at 9:00 a.m. followed by 9:45 a.m. services in person and on Zoom, lead by Rabbi Ron Koas and congregants. There are hearing assistance devices for in-person attendees and captioning available on Zoom.
