Friday, September 11
7:15pm to 8:15pmShabbat Shalom! For our September Jconnect Shabbat, we are offering a variety of options to best fit everyone and anyone's needs -- choose the elements that add up to the Shabbat experience you want. It's Shabbat, your own way.
Community and Singing: Get in the mood for High Holidays with a virtual Shabbat gathering featuring singing led by beloved local Jewish musician Chava Mirel at 7:15pm, so that no matter where you are, you can feel connected to your Jconnect community. Chava will be co-leading our musical services on High Holidays as well! We'll have a little time at the beginning to meet and greet, and then we'll keep this call open for a while after the singing ends so those who want to can chat with each other!
Food, Friends, and Shabbags: Whether you've been gathering in small, safe groups already* and want to celebrate Shabbat together, or you're doing Shabbat solo, we are offering $5/person towards your dinner or ritual items, up to $25/group, and/or Shabbags with your Shabbat supplies (challah, grape juice, tea lights, blessings, and a "Taste of Torah") ready to go. Deadline to sign up for a Shabbag is 5 pm Wednesday, September 9th and then you can pick up your Shabbag at Hillel on Thursday night, September 10th, between 7-9 pm, or Friday, September 11th, between 11 am and 2 pm! We ask that you wear a mask for the short time that you are in the building - thank you!
RSVP below! We look forward to seeing you! You will receive the Zoom link upon RSVP.
*If you plan to have dinner with up to a total of five, we encourage you to be outside if possible, and to definitely wear masks! See Washington State's Safe Start guidelines for more.
