Weekly Services
On Shabbat we leave the stress and competition of the week behind. As we come together for Friday evening Kabbalat Shabbat and Saturday Shabbat morning services, the community joins in song and reflection, led by Rabbi Michelle Dardashti, our Prayer Leader in Residence, Shaliah Tzibur Noah Solomon, and members of the Congregation.
Throughout the year we celebrate Shabbat and holidays with a variety of prayer services and educational programs, including two or three bustling family and youth services on each Saturday morning of the school year.
Everyone is welcome to join us in prayer, study, and friendship.
In-person services generally take place in the Sanctuary or Chapel (or in the Community Room over the summer)
Please excuse the appearance of the Sanctuary as restoration work is done to the ceiling.
Check the latest Kane Street Connections for details.
