Donor & Membership Shabbat Service

In person & online

Open to members & non-members

Please join us in person and online for a special Donor & Membership Shabbat Service honoring our Annual Appeal donors and congregants celebrating over 20 years of membership at Shaaray Tefila.

This Shabbat also begins Rabbi Mosbacher's four-week Haftarah sermon series, After The Chains are Broken.

The Torah tells the dramatic story of liberation in the book of Exodus– a text we read in January in the regular cycle of Torah readings, and then again at Passover. The Haftarah portions for the weeks that follow our liberation story ask a harder question: What kind of people do we become once the chains are broken? Rabbi Mosbacher offers a sermon series on four Friday nights based on the prophetic readings for each Shabbat. The assertion that Rabbi Mosbacher makes in this series is this: Freedom is not proven by how chains are broken — but by how responsibility is carried afterward.

This Shabbat: Parashat Bo (Jeremiah 46) - As we honor our Annual Appeal donors and our members, Rabbi Mosbacher will speak on the theme, “Will We Act As If We Are Responsible for One Another?”

Festive oneg to follow.
