** Congregation Ahavat Olam’s musically uplifting weekly Shabbat service. **
Simchat Torah and Shemini Atzeret service, featuring a special appearance by the Ahavat Olam Ensemble. We celebrate our heritage... by dancing with the Torahs during the Simchat Torah portion of the service, and then we will remember our loved ones during the Yizkor/Shemini Atzeret portion.
On this Shemini Atzeret, we mark the beginning of the rainy season, and Rabbi Idan will lead Tefilat HaGeshem, a traditional prayer of thanks to God for the blessing of rain.
