This Shabbat, due to vacations, we will provide a pre-recorded Shabbat celebration for YOU, complete with beautiful prayers, messages, Torah, and music. We will provide the link for this special service on Friday for you to enjoy and view at a time convenient for you.

We will also provide our ZOOM & SCHMOOZE time at 8:00 pm ET, a time to get together on Zoom and share the joy of Shabbat virtually, our virtual Oneg Shabbat, since we will not be able to meet in person. Both Rabbi Barry and Cantor Carol will be away and unable to lead us, but we will have the next best thing ... recorded Shabbat by Rabbi Barry sharing his message and insight with us! We hope you will join in and view our celebration of this beautiful weekly holiday of the Sabbath and take the time to pause, relax, and reflect. Our rational interpretation of Judaism, Shabbat and the Torah may be just what you are looking for and need!

The links for our Virtual SHABBAT

As many of you may be aware, Rabbi Barry (also an attorney) filed a lawsuit / complaint with Congregation L'Dor Va-Dor against the state of Florida and our govenor for the law due to go into effect on July 1, 2022 that will not allow women to have an abortion after 15 weeks of pregnancy.

We had a wonderful turnout at The Mariposa for Shabbat this past Friday evening from our congregation and the residents of Mariposa and enjoyed a beautiful and musical Sabbath experience. We hope that you will watch our virtual Sabbath celebration on June 24-25. We will not be meeting at The Mariposa, since both Rabbi Barry and Cantor Carol will be away on vacations. We will hold a virtual live ZOOM & SCHMOOZE to join together and share greetings and good news on Friday evening, June 24th at 8:00 pm. We will return to The Mariposa on Friday, July 1st at 7:30 pm and hope you will choose to join us for our music-filled and dynamic Shabbat!
