Faith in the Dark Kabbalat Shabbat - Zoom
Friday, Nov 14th 7:30p to 9:30p
As we welcome the new month of Kislev, the season of dreams, miracles, and hidden light, we gather to celebrate Shabbat with the theme “Faith in the Dark.” Join Rabbi Schachar Orenstein and the Shir Hadash community for an evening of music, reflection, and gentle illumination — a time to nurture trust and hope even when the way forward is not yet clear. We’ll explore how the quiet light of Kislev reminds us that faith often begins in the dark, and that even the smallest spark can guide us home.
