Shabbat-Shavuot Evening Service: A special night of celebration as we celebrate Shavuot-our receiving of Torah at Mt. Sinai, and the gift of Shabbat-a time for connection and rest from the travails of the world. We will begin with worship that encompasses both Shavuot and Shabbat. We will follow our service with a special study session/discussion (will probably begin around 7:30 pm), bringing Torah Study into the contemporary issues we face as Jews. As we are still living in a Zoom world, feel free to have your own Shabbat dinner while we study. Traditionally, we eat a dairy meal to celebrate Shavuot. Zoom Link:

Shabbat Evening Service w/ Live-stream : Celebrate Shabbat together at our Kol Ami Erev Shabbat service, with music, a D"var Torah (a word or two of Torah), Sabbath prayers and blessings. This will be our first live stream service where musicians will come together with the rabbi (while keeping safe physical distance) to create a new kind of worship experience for our Kol Ami family, and also broaden and expand our Kol Ami community.
Let's make our Shabbat an Oneg - a Shabbat of Joy. Zoom Link:
