“Tzedek Tzedek Tirdof: Justice, Justice, You Shall Pursue”
Pulpit Guest – Jonathan Palmer
The world is in turmoil. Antisemitism, racism, sexism and other forms of prejudices have all seen sharp increases in the past few years with devastating consequences. If we ever hope to stem the tide and bring about peace, we must pursue justice to its fullest extent. Jonathan Palmer will share some thoughts on why and how we get there.

We move from the formality of the sanctuary to our social hall to create a more intimate service. Our singing is accompanied by violin, guitar, keyboard, and percussion. The evocative music opens our hearts and awakens our spirits.
Shabbat is always for the soul, but there is a particularly soulful atmosphere at “Shabbat for the Soul” services. It is a more contemplative worship style with the congregation sitting in the round. We use a single page handout for the prayers. A slower pace enables us to focus on the meditative effect of the music, the potential for deeper awareness and prayer, and the feeling of community.
