We honor and celebrate the life of Dr. Martin Luther King on this special Shabbat. Members of the interfaith community join us for services and song as we gather in unity.

We invite you to end your week and welcome Shabbat with us!

At 6:00 pm and again after the service: Have something to eat (to tide you over or as your dinner), a drink (we offer a full bar, plus non-alcoholic options), and connect with your community.

Kids are always welcome, and they’ll be able to eat before (and after) the service, play Connect 4, or create at a coloring table.

6:30 pm – Our Shabbat service begins. We are thrilled to welcome Rev. Canon Leonard Hamlin, Sr. of the National Cathedral as our guest speaker, the Shiloh Baptist Church choir, WHC’s Kol Rinah choir, and leaders of other faith communities.

After the service – Stay for dessert, or more food and drinks!

Special thanks to our musicians who add so much to the service. We wouldn’t have them without the support of the Irene & Abe Pollin Music Program Initiative.

Don’t forget to register for the MLK Day of Service and get more details on our Clothing Drive.
