The courage of our young people is a source of hope.  Gen Z, which includes many professional athletes, are stepping up to fight against injustice.

We are the world- Shabbat Shalom

 

“We are the World” was originally performed in 1985 by Supergroup USA for Africa

Shabbat Shalom-One Day

One Day

Something amazing happened in Haifa a couple of years ago.  Three thousand people gathered to sing a song- Matisyahu’s song One Day.  Words in Hebrew, Arabic, and English combined into a single voice of love and hope.

Enjoy, Shabbat Shalom!

Shabbat Shalom – There is no Other

Rabbi Yosef Goldman brings the new music to the phrase Ein Od, No Other.  It is part of the Aleinu prayer we share at the conclusion of our service praying for the time when we all recognize the supremacy of the Eternal.

Shabbat Shalom

Shabbat Shalom

Listen to the Music was a big hit for the Doobie Brothers and a fun way to welcome Shabbat especially when musicians from Playing for Change come together from around the world joining to sing its message.

So Listen ( and sing along) with the Music

Shabbat Shalom

Shabbat Shalom-What’s goin’ on?

Marvin Gaye’s classic song is performed by Playing for Change bringing musicians from around the world together to make beautiful music together.  A wonderful framing for Shabbat.

Shabbat Shalom.
