Sermon of the week
Did you miss the sermon from Friday night's Kabbalat Shabbat service? Don't fret because you can watch the sermon of the week right here!
At Friday Night's Kabbalat Shabbat service, guest performer, Alan Goodis offered music and a message that related back to the story of Moses and the burning bush. Alan instructed us to embody radical attentiveness by looking more closely at our lives and those around us, much like Moses needed to do in order to convene with God for the first time.
