Shabbat with Rodef Sholom
Our Vision for Shabbat
“There is a realm of time where the goal is not to have but to be, not to own but to give, not to control but to share, not to subdue but to be in accord. Life goes wrong when the control of space, the acquisition of things of space, becomes our sole concern."
-Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel ~The Sabbath
Friday Evening Shabbat Services
At Rodef Sholom, our intention is to create an intergenerational, participatory experience that offers meaning and welcome to all in our community. Our prayer together reflects the diversity of our congregation, with different emphases and teachers. Shabbat is a time of reflection and wonder, of stepping out of the daily routines of our usual routines, and into a transformative moment in time. We invite you to make Shabbat with us a weekly tradition, and look forward to welcoming you at our next service!
The Details: Our Shabbat experience begins with a pre-oneg at 5:45pm, at which time all are invited to grab a drink and a nosh, and enjoy some time connecting with the community. Our services start at 6:15pm in our beautiful building, with virtual options for participation on both Facebook Live and Zoom.
Please note that services are now mask optional for indoor services. All are welcome to attend.

Shabbat Unplugged
On select First Fridays throughout the year, we welcome Dan Nichols, our artist-in-residence for a weekend of Shabbat services like no other, and other special programs. Expect a vibrant weekend of music and community, including evening services, a communal dinner, and Shabbat Unplugged, a beloved community tradition of shared music and song that goes into the night following Friday services (Dan loves seeing our singing community face to face, so we encourage you to gather with us in person for this special experience, if you are able).
