Chaverim Shabbat. At Shaarey Tikvah, we love celebrating Shabbat together with our shul family. Family Fridays is a program for families with children 0 – 18. We celebrate a musical and fun Kabbalat Shabbat service and then enjoy Shabbat dinner together as a community. Family Fridays are held bi-monthly from 5:45 pm to 7:30 pm during the school year.
Pajama Neshama. A bi-monthly erev Shabbat experience for our youngest congregants: children 0 – 5 and their families. We gather in our pajamas for a kid-friendly Shabbat dinner at 5:30 pm, followed by songs, games, and stories with Rabbi Roland.
Family Havdalah. In this annual winter evening program, families gather together to bid farewell to Shabbat. There are crafts and activities as well as singing and a light dinner.
