Unveiling the Secrets of the Erev Shabbat Service (In Person)

Think you know the Erev Shabbat service? Come uncover the hidden messages, surprising meanings, and rich layers of tradition hiding in plain sight. Together we’ll explore the language of the prayer book and discover Shabbat in a whole new way.

Through study and conversation, you’ll:

• Understand what the prayers are really saying
• Find hidden meanings and messages in the service
• Learn why the prayers follow the order they do
• Get comfortable with basic Hebrew words and patterns
• Explore the stories behind how some prayers developed

Along the way, we’ll uncover hidden gems, stir up lively questions, and maybe even spark a few surprises. Join us and see the service with fresh eyes—you may never experience Shabbat the same way again!
