May it be my custom to go out among the trees and grass, among all growing things...and enter into prayer. - Rebbe Nachman of Bratslav

Join us as we leave the walls of the synagogue and bring our Shabbat morning gathering into the sanctuary of the forest. We'll start with an interactive stroll through the woods weaving in themes of Shabbat morning prayer, we'll open up the Torah and read it among the trees of life, and end with a shared (bring-your-own) lunch and games for the kids at Spanish Banks. 

We'll meet at the west end of Spanish Banks (parking lot) at 9:45 am. 10:00-11:45 forest walk. 12:00 lunch and games on the field at Spanish Banks.

Shabbat Soul is a wonderful way to introduce friends to the spirit of Or Shalom

Join us for Kabbalat Shabbat, led by Rabbi Hannah with Martin Gotfrit & Wendy Rubin. This is a music-driven experience for winding down from the stresses of the week past and settling into the island in time that is Shabbat. A mix of joyful welcoming and restful introspection.

Fri, May 31 | 8-10pm | Adult-Oriented
Heart-centred Torah Study for Women & Non-binary Members | 2 Spaces Available

This class reads the weekly (Torah) parsha together, a gleaning from scholars and/or our own impressions is presented by 1-2 participants, then each responds from the heart to what is speaking to us from the Torah portion and writes freely for 15-20 minutes. This is followed by each classmate sharing their rough, heart-centred writing. And a short reflection at the end. We meet on the 1st and 3rd Wednesdays each month 6:30-8pm via video chat (Zoom).
