Friday Night
Congregation Sinai has occasional Friday night Kabbalat Shabbat services to welcome in the Sabbath. Check our calendar for the schedule. The service lasts about one hour, and is filled with singing. During daylight savings months, when Shabbat candle lighting is later, Rabbi Berkenwald plays guitar for the first portion of the service.
Approximately once a month, our Kabbalat Shabbat services are followed by a gourmet community Shabbat dinner, prepared by Sinai’s B’teavon Committee. These dinners are delicious and usually sell out, so be sure to sign up early.
Occasionally, Kabbalat Shabbat services are preceded by a “Shabbat Happy Hour,” with kid and adult-friendly drinks and hors d’ouevres.
