Tikkun Leil Shabbat
Start: 6:45 pm
End: 10:30 pm

Tikkun Leil Shabbat is a welcoming, restful, songful community where we glimpse redemption at dusk on a Friday evening, eat things with tofu and noodles in them, learn from each others' thoughts and experiences, and educate ourselves about the good work people are already doing to make our city a gentler and fairer place for everyone who lives here.

This service will be East-facing and a cappella.
