Shabbat Service – Vayishlach – led by Rabbi Shari Joy Berman

December 6 @ 10:30 am - 2:30 pm

Join us for a special Shabbat service, led by Rabbi Shari Joy Berman. To mark the 21st anniversary of her adult Bat Mitzvah, R. Shari will read from the same Torah portion she had in 2004: וַיִּשְׁלַח / Vayishlach, B’reisheet/Genesis 32:4-36:43, which includes Jacob’s reconciliation with his estranged brother Esau, and the most famous (… the only) wrestling match in the Torah which gave the patriarch a lifelong limp and a new name. R. Shari will deliver a d’rash inspired by themes in the parashah, as she did two decades ago.

After services, stay for our Kiddush & Kibbitz potluck. If you can, bring a dish to share (but no pork or shellfish).

For those unable to attend in person, the service will be live-streamed via Zoom and on the KBS YouTube Channel and Facebook page. Zoom connection information will be provided by email.
