Shabbat Service

Second, Fourth and Fifth Friday Night of the Month
There is no better way to end your week than to come and pray at our 8:00pm service. These services are filled with beautiful singing and thoughtful poetry and meditations. The congregation participates fully by raising their voices in song and prayer. One of our rabbis offers a sermon each week, an opportunity to learn from their wisdom and be inspired and challenged by their words. We look forward to seeing you at these services as we connect with God and with thousands of years of religious expression.
