Worship Services

Communal worship and personal prayer are at the core of our congregational life. Recognizing this, we offer regular Shabbat services at both our Temple Campus and at the Audrey and Sydney Irmas Campus. Whether you are drawn by song and celebration or are looking for reflection and meditation, we invite you to explore our service and worship opportunities.

Shabbat Morning Torah Study

Our ancestors engaged, questioned and wrestled with morality, family strife, community values and God’s presence, just as we do today. These precious insights are recorded in the Torah—the greatest of all literature. Join our rabbis, cantors and teachers in this weekly exploration of the words, phrases, concepts and beliefs of our tradition.
