Shabbat

NEW! Learn Common Prayers from the Shabbat Liturgy!

If you want to feel comfortable in the synagogue on Shabbat, one of the most helpful skills to have is familiarity with the Hebrew. It takes practice, which is why we are now offering the text for many of the prayers read and sung on Friday night and Saturday morning, as well as recordings to help you get more comfortable with the Hebrew. We have resources available for both Shabbat evening as well as Shabbat morning.
