Starlight Shabbat

“Starlight Shabbat is a sensory experience; summer breezes and the scent of trees awakens a spiritual connection for me.” Our summer services offer a nice change of pace and have become a favorite for many of our congregants. We have a beautiful courtyard that enables our congregation to pray as the sun sets and the stars come out. In recent years it has become customary for us to wear white, recreating the nostalgia many of us remember from summers away at camp! An altogether beautiful Shabbat experience — come join us to fully appreciate it!
