Shabbat Shuvah and Family Shabbat

Shabbat Shuvah is the Sabbath between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.  The name is derived from the opening word of the Haftarah reading that urges us: Shuvah Yisrael   “Return, O Israel, to the Eternal your God.”

What does that mean for each of us? To whom or what might we be returning? Is it to a sense of goodness? Is it to a sense of being loved? Is it to a connection with those from whom we have strayed?  Is it to God?   Join us on Friday Night, October 7, for a Sabbath experience as we seek to find ways to direct our good intentions from Rosh Hashanah and set a path of return as we prepare ourselves for Yom Kippur. It is also Family Shabbat. Join us for Tot Shabbat, Family Dinner and Game Night following services! Kids, please bring your shofars!
