Bring your whole self – body, mind, heart, spirit – to
welcome Shabbat with us at our Friday evening Kabbalat Shabbat services. Rabbi
Goldenberg, Kris Wettstein, our music director, and our circle of volunteer
singers and musicians hold the sacred Zoom space for ecstatic and contemplative
prayer. We also spend time discussing a theme from the weekly Torah
portion, connecting it to what is happening in the world. No Hebrew literacy is
necessary. All Hebrew is transliterated, and many of our prayers are in
English. You are invited to have Shabbat candles, Kiddush cup with wine/grape
juice and a challah nearby so that we can visually share in the Shabbat
blessings with each other from our homes.

We sink into the spaciousness and peace of Shabbat together,
with silence, singing, prayer and study. Rabbi Goldenberg hosts meditation and
then leads chanted prayer and an interactive discussion of the Torah portion.
Saturday mornings are intergenerational, bringing adults
together with our 5th-7th grade Mekhinim students who are
learning Hebrew prayer by immersing themselves in the Shabbat morning
experience. Towards the end of the morning, younger children enter the Zoom
space for blessings before the Children’s Learning and Mekhinim programs begin.
