Shavuot Dessert and Learning

Come celebrate this OTP Reform Shavuot! Rabbinic tradition marks Shavuot as the day when the Israelites were united at the foot of Mt. Sinai to receive the Ten Commandments. As we study and pray together this evening, we love that our Reform congregations can mark this occasion with a show of unity. Please take the opportunity this evening to introduce yourselves to members of the different kehillot.

Cantor Lauren Adesnik (Temple Emanu-El), Cantor Nancy Kassel (Temple Beth Tikvah), and Cantorial Soloist Mike Zuspan (Congregation Dor Tamid) will lead us in prayer this evening
