• Shabbat Evening Worship

  Fridays, September through June – 7:30pm.
  July and August – 6:30pm

  As a congregation, we love to sing! Members and visitors of all ages engage in our prayers and music. In addition to worship, we often read from the Torah (the Penteteuch/Five Books of Moses), or discuss the weekly Torah portion. Congregation Shir Shalom members host an Oneg Shabbat after services, where all join together to eat some goodies and socialize.

• Young Families First Friday Shabbat

  First Friday of each month, September through June, 6 pm

  This service is open to anyone and especially intended for young families or for those who wish to enjoy Shabbat dinner at home after the service. We sing many of the songs and prayers that are taught in our Early Childhood Center and Religious School.

• Tot Shabbat 2.0

  Second Friday each month, 5:30pm. Brief service followed by a Communal Shabbat Dinner

  Especially for families with children under age 6, this brief musical service helps our youngest members become familiar with Jewish melodies and prayers. We sing many of the songs and prayers that are taught in our Early Childhood Center and Religious School. The brief service also includes a story, followed by a delicious Shabbat dinner and a supervised children’s activity so parents can talk and enjoy Shabbat together.
