Come join Nefesh for a special Friday Shabbat together in person or online
Nefesh Friday Night Shabbat services are on the first and third Fridays of the month – all are welcome! Bring a dessert to share.
At 6:30pm before Erev Shabbat Services, we have Lai Lai: Learn and L’Chaim with Rabbi Aaron, a chance to say kiddush, toast with friends, and do a little bit of prayer learning before the service.
Sign up for Lai Lai: Learn and L’Chaim by RSVPing for Shabbat
In Person Check in starts at 6:30pm
Livestream opens at 6:55pm
Erev Shabbat Service starts at 7pm
Dessert Potluck Oneg follows the service
Location: St. Paul’s Commons, 840 Echo Park Ave, Los Angeles CA 90026
Health & Safety: There will be indoor and limited outdoor seating. Masks are encouraged and at your discretion – please protect yourself and others!
ASL and Childcare provided. Nefesh provides an ASL interpreter at our Shabbat services. If there is no one in attendance either in person or remotely who needs ASL within the first 60 minutes of the service, we will release the interpreter. We also provide closed captioning in person and online. If you want to follow the captions, we suggest you grab a seat in the front row on the left section, closest to the monitor. Speech and music are almost entirely amplified – there are moments in the service when you are invited to speak directly to the people sitting near you.
Service animals are welcome; please leave other furry friends at home.
Parking: Garage parking is available with elevator access to the gathering space on Level 1, where all surfaces are paved or carpeted. Please enter the garage at 850 Echo Park Avenue and press 001 to be buzzed in. Street level access is on Echo Park Ave by staircase (2 flights) or elevator. Biking, carpooling, walking, etc. are also encouraged. NOTE: For the safety of our community, please do not attempt to enter or exit through the back gate on Laguna Ave.
