Shabbat Outdoors!
Morning services this Shabbat (9:30 am) will be outdoors on the synagogue patio. We’ll enjoy the beautiful weather, sing songs, read the Torah and discuss how we can best enter the New Year on a great spiritual note. We’ll begin with orange juice and cookies, have a meaningful Shabbat service and program and end with Kiddish and warm wishes for a Shana Tova – a very happy and healthy New Year – before noon. So… come join us for one last beautiful Shabbat outdoors to ring out 5770 and welcome 5771
