Join us on Erev Shavuot for a Tikkun Leil Shavuot, a night of learning, praying, and being together in the unknown. In this year of “in-between-ness”, we’ll explore what our tradition has to say about liminal moments, revelation, and finding holiness in the most unexpected places. Learning sessions and dvrei torah will be available on both Zoom and socially distanced in our parking lot (around camp fires!).

Our guest, scholar-not-in-residence, Rabbi Adam Greenwald will give the sermon, as well as a “kiddush learning” via zoom - BYO kiddush!

Kiddush Learning: Sinai Re-visited: Elijah's Mountaintop Moment
The Bible is full of subversive sequels, retellings of familiar tales with a profound twist. We'll engage in a close reading of the Book of Kings and join Elijah as he retraces Moses' steps to the place where it all began one Shavuot eve so long ago -- and meets God who is nothing like what he (or we) had been led to expect.
