SHABBAT, SHIRAH & HAVDALAH

SATURDAY, MARCH 26 at 7:00 pm ET
on Zoom

Cantorial Spiritual Leader Andrew Susman

We welcome one and all to this special service with Andy, filled with music and love. Havdalah is a very special service, during which we use all of our senses: to smell the sweet spices, to see the flame, to feel the heat and hear the crackling fire of the Havdalah candle, to taste the sweetness of the wine. We combine some of the best of Shabbat through prayer, word, and melody - concluding with Havdalah, a beautiful service, ‘separating’ & elevating the holy day of rest from the rest of the week. We bid farewell to our Sabbath Queen and long for her return once again next Friday!

Join together with Andy and L'Dor Va-Dor to enjoy a real Sabbath treat, musically and inspiritionally!

MEMBER Rabbi Martin Vesole presents his latest published book:

RETHINKING JUDAISM: What is Needed in the 21st Century

We have had very lovely Shabbat services at The Carlisle Palm Beach senior living center. We know that this is not in the best geographic location for most of our congregants and members, but this is a way for us to offer live and in-person services to you, as well as provide virtual to those of you who cannot attend. The Carlisle is allowing L'Dor Va-Dor to be there for no charge which is a very generous offer for us. We have committed to providing Shabbat at The Carlisle for March 11, 18, and 25.

We are continuing to look for venues for the future, that will be in a better location for our community. You can help us, if you know of or are aware of venues that may be suitable to our needs. In the meantime, we hope that you will continue to support our congregation and all that we are doing! We are offering a very unique perspective on Judaism with our rational approach and hope that you will share us with a friend or two. Please try to attend our very special event on Friday, March 4th at the West Boynton Park (and please let us know you will be there by clicking the RSVP buttons above, beneath the description of this special event). L'Dor Va-Dor, Rabbi Barry, and Cantor Carol welcome you to be a part of all that we offer!

We wish you a beautiful day, a grand week, and that you have love in your heart, laughter in your spirit, and kindness in your ways!

With Shalom,
