Travel Circle: Explore Southern Spain

Join Morah Beth, Jacob Schatz (aka “Rabbi Dinosaur”), and Jacob’s parents Cantor Dale and Morah Tracy, for a special Bite Size Kabbalat Shabbat. Come in your PJs! We will picnic! We will sing and dance! We will play, and craft, and welcome Shabbat together! For families of kids age 0-5 years old (and siblings!).

Wind down and get ready for Shabbat. We are diverse: still working and retired; single, divorced, widowed, and in a relationship; have children, grandchildren, pets, plants, or none of the above; Angelinos and transplants. What we have in common is ikar, a multitude of experiences, and a desire to spend some of our time enjoying events and experiences with those in our age group (60+).

We welcome everyone to our Shabbat morning services at 9:30am PT, no matter their level of observance, experience, or familiarity with Hebrew. Daven with us in person at Shalhevet, or join us virtually on YouTube or Zoom. Childcare is available during Services for kids ages 2-5. Stay afterward for our kosher, vegetarian community lunch! This week, Sen. Raphael Warnock joins Rabbi Brous in conversation about his new book, The Crooked Places Made Straight – Reflections on the Moral Meaning of America, which “examines six crises at the center of American life: voting rights and voter suppression, gun violence, mass incarceration, the persistence of poverty, dark money in politics, and the climate emergency.” Upcoming B’nai Mitzvahs: 6/27/2026 Milo Reid Greenberg-Creel 7/25/2026 Michael Goldstone 8/1/2026 Jonah Pulde 8/15/2026 Jonah YoonWoo Kend 8/22/2026 Noa Ellis Goldstein 8/29/2026 Archer Mekor Sroka 10/10/2026 Myla Vener 10/17/2026 Ayla Morchower 10/24/2026 Samuel Ethan & Joshua Gabriel Goldstein 11/7/2026 Lucille (Luci) Halpern-Fingerhut 11/14/2026 Henry Posalski 11/21/2026 Bo Mandell 11/28/2026 Ezekiel Mataan Brous-Weber 12/5/2026 Samuel Rafael Marquit 12/19/2026 Finch Rhodes

For families of all types and stripes with kids ages 0-5 (kids – don’t forget to bring your grown-up!) Whether you’re a rookie or a ringer, we invite you to tap into the age-old wisdom of Shabbat with your family. Join us as we slow down, reconnect, and rock out with our favorite clergy. What better way is there to end the week? Contact [email protected] for more information.
