Join Rabbi Lauren and our talented davening team (Drew Cohen, Dr. Jeff and R'Ellen Nemhauser, and Dr. Amy) as we bring in Shabbat with beautiful melodies!
Join us in person or on Zoom to welcome Shabbat. We will welcome Ruth Messinger, former president and CEO of American Jewish World Service, as our special guest and will have Shabbat dinner. Please RSVP for dinner.
Ruth Messinger is a tireless visionary and advocate for social change both in the Jewish and secular communities. As the head of the American Jewish World Service (AJWS) for nearly 20 years, she mobilized American Jews and others to speak out about injustice, give generously, and advocate for poor, oppressed and persecuted communities around the globe. In addition to her nonprofit work, Ruth spent many years in the political arena, notably as the first woman to secure a major party nomination for mayor of New York City. She is one of the most well-known and respected Jewish women, once named the sixth most influential Jew in the world by the Jerusalem Post.
