Gather with us onsite or online for Qabbalat Shabbat. All are welcome to join this service full of prayer, meditation, and music! 

On Friday, February 11, we welcome Daniel Sokatch, New Israel Fund CEO and author of the new book Can We Talk About Israel? A Guide for the Curious, Confused, and Conflicted. Can We Talk About Israel? is a primer on Israel and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and attempts to grapple with a century-long struggle between two peoples that both perceive themselves as (and indeed are) victims, and explain why Israel (and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict) inspires such extreme feelings.

Join us online or onsite at 6:00 p.m. for our Qabbalat Shabbat service, followed by an engaging and honest conversation between Daniel Sokatch and Rabbi Suzie Jacobson. 

Daniel Sokatch has served as the CEO of the New Israel Fund since 2009. Before joining NIF, Daniel served as the Executive Director of the Jewish Community Federation of San Francisco, the Peninsula, Marin and Sonoma Counties. Prior to his tenure at the Federation, he was founding Executive Director of the Progressive Jewish Alliance (now Bend the Arc).
