Happy Hour – 6:00 pm
Service – 7:00 pm

Celebrate National Refugee Shabbat at this inclusive service led by Rabbi Nora. With music from Sixth & I musicians, the service blends contemporary and traditional elements for an experience that feels both familiar and fresh. Hear from Mohammed Al Samawi, a peace activist, Yemeni refugee, author, and founder of Abrahamic House, a multifaith co-living space. Stick around for dessert from Lapis, an immigrant-owned Afghan restaurant.
