Shabbat and Holidays

At Temple Menorah, we welcome Shabbat and Jewish holidays with worship experiences grounded in the beauty and values of Reform Jewish tradition. Our services are egalitarian, accessible, and engaging, offering meaningful opportunities for prayer, reflection, and celebration.

Shabbat invites us to step away from the pace and pressures of everyday life and create sacred time for rest, renewal, and connection with one another and with Jewish tradition. Whether you are deeply familiar with Jewish worship or exploring it for the first time, we strive to create an environment where everyone can feel comfortable and included.

Friday evening services are musical, participatory, and uplifting, with congregational singing, reflection, and community connection at the heart of the experience. Saturday morning services include reading from the Torah as well as an interactive drash led by one of our rabbis, creating opportunities for discussion, learning, and contemporary connection to Jewish text and tradition.

We also come together to celebrate Jewish festivals and holidays with services and special gatherings. Most Shabbat and holiday services are also livestreamed in order to expand access to these experiences.

Attending services is a wonderful way to experience Temple Menorah’s warm and contemporary approach to Jewish life. Whether you are a longtime member, a first-time visitor, or joining us as a guest, you are always welcome.
