A Global Initiative at Our Shul
Come join us for the Shabbat Project, October 27-28.

Come to shul on Friday, Oct. 27 and Saturday, Oct. 28 to welcome Shabbat with Jews from more than 1,000 cities across the globe. The Shabbat Project brings together Jews from all backgrounds and traditions to celebrate one Shabbat together, and our shul here on the North Fork is part of the celebration.

With your help, our congregation can make a joyful noise that will be heard around the world. The Friday evening service begins at 7:30 PM, (We will be hosting a Shabbat Dinner before services at 5:30 PM for our Members.) and continues Saturday morning at 9:30 AM.

The Shabbat Project was introduced in South Africa in 2013 to an astonishing result. On the designated Shabbat, about 70 percent of the country’s 75,000 Jews kept Shabbat, many for the first time in their lives. Once news of the initiative had been reported, synagogues and informal Jewish groups around the world wanted to bring the project to their own cities and communities, and the international Shabbat Project was born. It was described as “the most ambitious Jewish unity initiative ever undertaken.”
