Shabbat Shalom

L’cha Dodi has helped us welcome Shabbat from almost the time Shlomo HaLevi Alkabetz wrote it. Hazzan Harold Messinger and Caroline Freewald sing this delightful version.

Shabbat Shalom!

Shabbat Shalom

Welcoming the Shabbat Bride with a Latin rhythm, a wonderful duet from Cantor Harold of Beth Am Israel.

As we prepare for Shabbat, we hold in our prayers those lost last night during the celebration of Lag B’Omer, and their families.

Shabbat Shalom

We greet Shabbat with the poetry of Shlomo Alkabez’s Lecha Dodi.  Moshav shares their wonderful rendition making you want to rise up, dance and clap.

Shabbat Shalom!

Shabbat Shalom

The penultimate stanza of Lecha Dodi asks you to carry the message of Adonai out into the world, literally to spread out to the right and to the left.  This beautiful welcome of Shabbat is a gift from Joey Weisenberg and the Hadar Ensemble, featuring the beautiful voice of Debra Sacks.
