Neshamah Shabbat Stories

Whether you grew up with Shabbat or you’ve never lit a candle in your life, Neshamah’s door is open to you. Our Shabbat gatherings center on the things that matter most: warm community, live music, and teachings that lift you up and carry you into the week ahead. Led by Rabbi Rader our choir and Musical Director Sharon Shear, the music weaves together summer camp memories and ancient tradition into something that feels both familiar and brand new.

Throughout the year, Shabbat takes on special flavors: Beach Shabbat under the open sky, Purim Shabbat, Healing Shabbat, Memorial Shabbat, and celebrations of the birthdays, anniversaries, and life moments happening right in our midst.

These are the stories of our recent Shabbat celebrations.
