Qabbalat Shabbat with Visiting Israeli Rabbi Itamar Lapid

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

In a time of war and heartache for the Jewish people, it is more important than ever for us to be in relationship together. We are honored to be joined by Israeli Rabbi Itamar Lapid for a weekend of learning and connection as we discuss the complexities, challenges and triumphs of Jewish peoplehood for both Israeli Jews and North American Jewish communities. 

There will be several opportunities to meet and learn with Rabbi Lapid: Qabbalat Shabbat on March 15, and Torah study (9:00 a.m.) and Havdalah (3:00 p.m.) on March 16.

Register here to join us on Zoom, or log on via Facebook Live or Temple Israel’s livestream.
