SHABBAT DINNER: 6:00 PM
SHABBAT SERVICE: 6:45 PM

Everyone is juggling many things every day. Wise Temple’s monthly Family Shabbat gives families a space to exhale and to add a meaningful punctuation to the end of the week. Free Shabbat dinner fosters community and fun, and also eases the stress of feeding your family at the end of a busy day. A brief Shabbat service utilizes a prayer book with language accessible for children ages 5 and older. This service is for families with school-aged children, meeting the spiritual needs of both children and adults. It combines a joyful playfulness with thought-provoking questions to challenge our minds and includes uplifting music, creative prayer and discussion. Experience the spirit and serenity of Shabbat.

A spiritual Shabbat prayer experience that will relax your body, renew your mind, and refresh your soul. Create a deeper sense of connection through prayer. Through meditation and mindfulness we create a deeper sense of kavanah, of intention, when we speak to God.

This service weaves in a number of readings, meditations, musical prayers, and more on the theme of personal and communal healing. If you are in need of healing, if a loved one is in need of your healing prayers, and/or if you generally wish to support others in their healing, please carve out this hour of Shabbat.

Select times throughout the year

In our Shabbat worship, we are reminded to “Sing a new song unto God.” At this special Shabbat service, that’s exactly what we’ll do. In fact, it may just about be all we do! Join us for this melodic way to end the regular rhythm of the week and welcome the harmony of the Sabbath day.

Select times throughout the year

Experience the joy and calm of Shabbat combined with thinking, questioning and learning. Instead of a sermon, we’ll take some time to explore a topic.
Explore Jewish values and how they speak to our lives. Better understand the whys behind prayers, rituals, and texts.

• Ideal combination of community, prayer and study to deepen the celebration of Shabbat.
• You won’t be called on. You don’t have to have any answers. You just have to be curious.
