Shabbat Services

Every Shabbat and on all Jewish festivals, our congregation gathers to worship together in the beauty of the Reform Jewish tradition. Shabbat is a time to pause each week and put aside the demands on our lives. It is a time for personal and collective reflection and renewal. The Community Synagogue offers a variety of worship experiences. We invite you as a member, visitor or guest to discover worship that is meaningful to you. Mishkan T’filah is the prayerbook we use for all services. 

Friday Erev Shabbat Services

Tot Shabbat Service, 5:30 pm, These services are geared for children six and under, though older siblings (and all family members) are welcome. 

Erev Shabbat Service, 6:30 pm.  Roughly once a month we celebrate Shabbat Rocks, aa joyous and uplifting musical Shabbat experience.

“Second Shabbes” Congregational Family Shabbat Service, 6:30 pm-  This is a short Shabbat service held one Friday of the month (almost always on the second Friday.) The service is for all ages, but it is family-friendly, using a prayer book more appropriate for school children.  Come prepared for lots of music, spirit  and energy, often with the participation of our Religious School students.
