Pathways to Prayer

Join us on Saturday, November 9, as we experience a new Pathway to Prayer.

Prayer is meant to move us, inspire us, change us, and give us an anchor each Shabbat when we gather as a community. In practice, though, prayer contains many challenges – the Hebrew, the length of the service, competing commitments, and a feeling of self consciousness for those who feel “everyone in the room knows more than I do.”

To help make services more accessible and welcoming, we will break the 2.5 hour service time into three smaller parts, with breaks for cookies and coffee in between. This will allow you to learn the different parts of the service and participate in those that are the most comfortable for you.

There are 3 main blocks: Shacharit, Torah Service, and Musaf. With service modules, you can’t be late for shul! You have choices of what you are familiar with and what you want to get to know more in depth. Come for one, two, or all three!

  • 9:15 am – 9:45 am: Shacharit – Library
  • 10:00 am – 11:00 am: Torah Reading – Swoff Chapel and via livestream
  • 11:15 am – 12:00 pm: Sermon and Musaf – Swoff Chapel and via livestream
