Earlier this week you may have received a cancellation notice from Zoom re: Kabbalat Shabbat and Shabbat morning services. The notification was sent inadvertently and we're sorry for any inconvenience it may have caused. We are continuing to gather on Zoom for Kabbalat Shabbat at 6:30 pm each Friday and both on Zoom and in the sanctuary (for vaccinated advance registrants) at 9:30 am on Saturday mornings. We do have new Zoom links for both Kabbalat Shabbat and Saturday morning prayer services, with a new passcode fitting our new year. Register using the appropriate link from a current weekly email or on our website and you'll be set for 5782.
