Riverway Shabbat Slowdown

Shabbat Slowdown is your invitation to step away from the hustle of daily life and enter a Divine space of rest, joy, and connection. Join the Riverway Community monthly on Saturday afternoon to pause, reflect, and experience the peace that Shabbat offers us. Shabbat Slowdown activities will vary, but you can expect anything from soulful song circles, poetry slams, and meaningful text studies to laughter-filled arts & crafts and board games - and, of course, schmoozing and snacks. Whether you're looking to try on a new Shabbat practice, attune to Jewish time, or simply enjoy time with friends, we can't wait to relish the joy of Shabbat Slowdown together.

This month join Tikkun Central's Food Justice Team as and your Riverway friends as we make bagged lunches for distribution by La Colaborativa and the Southern Jamaica Plain Health Center. Following lunch packing, Riverway will gather for a sensitivity training by Yachad. Yachad helps Jewish individuals with intellectual, developmental, and learning disabilities develop a sense of belonging in the community. 

Sign up to bring supplies for making lunches. Let us know you'll join us at Shabbat Slowdown! 

Shabbat Slowdown and the Riverway Project are for those in their 20s and 30s.
