Kabbalat Shabbat Services

Shabbat Shuvah—the Sabbath of Return

6:30pm

On Shabbat Shuvah, “the Shabbat of Return” preceding Yom Kippur, we traditionally focus on the theme of repentance. In tonight’s drashah, Cooperberg-Rittmaster Rabbinical Fellow Deborah Megdal will juxtapose modern and ancient poetry to take on the lifelong work of self-understanding in order to return to ourselves.

Picture of the Week 📸

From CBST member Peter Rabinowitz: "During Erev Rosh Hashanah services when Rabbi Kleinbaum announced RBG had passed away— just before I recited Kaddish for my dad’s Yahrzeit—I added my 'Notorious RBG Real Life Action Figure' to my home sanctuary table. It’s right behind the shofar which will call us to action, now more than ever, in her memory.

"Here in Philadelphia we remember that words of Torah from Leviticus are engraved on the Liberty Bell: 'Proclaim Liberty Throughout the Land to All of the Inhabitants Thereof.' That sums up RBG’s mission and work—work we must continue together. So let’s now call it the RBG Bell."
