Shabbat Services

Members of Temple Adat Shalom join for Shabbat worship in the Reform tradition - rooted in the ancient rituals of our people, yet enhanced by contemporary approaches and forms. A broad range of musical sources, participation by our members, singing by our adult and junior choirs, lively family celebrations, and personal and intimate life cycle commemorations strengthen us in spirit and community.

Erev Shabbat Services (September - June)
Friday night, 7:00 p.m.

Erev Shabbat Services (July - August)

    • Childcare During Friday Night Services
    Encouraging worship to be a family affair and hoping to help families to more regularly attend and participate in Shabbat services, TAS offers childcare during Friday night services the first and third Shabbat of each month.

    Children aged 18 months through 5 years can stay for the entire service or just drop in if they become restless in the sanctuary. The fun and Judaic-themed adult supervised care will include games, stories, songs and art and will be held in the social hall.



    Summer Erev Shabbat Twilight Services (July - August)
    At our twilight services every Friday night in July and August we celebrate Shabbat at 6:15 pm in the Temple courtyard with a short, family friendly service. Most of these services will be about one hour long and thus provide the opportunity for congregants to come to Temple directly from work and then go on to a leisurely Shabbat dinner.
