This week, we celebrate the start of Sukkot with a special festival service.

Our Shabbat morning service, led by our rabbis and cantors, often includes the b’nei mitzvah of one of our teens as well as the traditional elements of a Shabbat morning service: prayers, responsive readings, music, reading from the Torah, and a d’var Torah (interpretation of the weekly Torah portion). On mornings when there is no b’nei mitzvah, our clergy may use this opportunity to conduct a Learner’s Service and explain different aspects of the service or liturgy.
