Following the success of the shul’s early Shabbat services on Jan. 24 and Feb. 21, both followed by a Shabbat dinner, the “experiment” will continue one more time, on Friday, March 20, at 6 p.m. Please join us.

The idea behind the experiment is to welcome Shabbat during the dark winter months of January, February and March closer to the actual time that Shabbat officially begins, not at the 7:30 p.m. time that Shabbat services traditionally begin at our shul. That idea combined with a suggestion that Shabbat dinners are popular with congregants led to what shul president Susan Rosenstreich called “the experiment” — early Shabbat followed by a meal together.

Please RSVP to ctigreenport@gmail.com so we’ll know to expect you on March 20.
