6:30 pm on Fridays
Our Friday evening service held year-round at 6:30 pm is an informal gathering which includes the traditional Kabbalat Shabbat and Maariv services. We conclude at 7 pm to enable worshipers to be home for Shabbat dinner. On selected Friday nights during the year, we hold a “Shabbat Live” which is a more enhanced service with musical instruments.
9:15 am on Saturdays
Congregants participate in all aspects of the service including leading services as shlichei tzibbur, reading Torah, chanting haftarah, providing a prayer or Torah commentary, and delivering a d’var Torah. We are fortunate to have a wealth of talented individuals who volunteer to lead us in prayer and who provide thoughtful commentaries. Many of Kol Shalom’s young people as well as the adult members of the community take part. The participatory nature of our service creates an informal and spirited atmosphere, which gives us a true sense of community. We invite members and non-members to daven with us any Shabbat morning. Anyone who would like to participate in any part of our service may contact Rabbi Gil Steinlauf.
