Shabbat Services at Solomon Schechter Day School
Embrace the Spirit of Shabbat
Welcome to the Shabbat Services page of Solomon Schechter Day School, where we celebrate the beauty of Jewish traditions and foster a strong community spirit. Our Shabbat services are designed to bring together individuals of all ages, providing a meaningful and engaging experience for everyone.
What is Shabbat?
Shabbat, known as the Jewish Sabbath, is a sacred day of rest and worship that begins at sundown on Friday and ends at nightfall on Saturday. It is a time to detach from the everyday routines and focus on spiritual rejuvenation, family bonding, and connecting with our faith.
