Shabbat
Shabbat is central to spiritual life at BJ, bringing together the breadth of our multi-generational community in prayer, music, learning, and joyful celebration. Rooted in a long tradition of music at the core of spirituality, we are joined at each service by some of the world’s most gifted musicians, elevating our voices and souls, and deepening our connection to prayer.
Join us for services and explore our multiple pathways to grow your Shabbat practice at home.
