Rabbi Scott will be giving his drashot (sermons) in both services. He’ll spend much of his prayer time supporting the Ohel service.
Both our offerings are intended to be full High Holy Day services, geared towards somewhat different needs. The Bayit service is the amazing Adat Shalom service you’ve loved for years. The Ohel service is better for those who feel further from the prayerbook or are less experienced with services. The Bayit service is family friendly (it’s Adat Shalom, after all!); the Ohel service is great for families who need to move around. The Bayit service is about half an hour longer, and that much fuller in terms of prayers. The Ohel service will have all the greatest hits, but a little less in between. The Bayit service will have prayerbooks in hand; all the prayers of the Ohel service will be projected.
Choose whichever one works best for you, and if you want to experience both…Rena won’t tell.
Both services embody the core values of Adat Shalom, reflecting our commitment to building accessible, inclusive, and diverse community. Rich musical expression will be a cornerstone of both services, enhancing the spiritual experience and engagement for all involved. Honoring Reconstructionist Jewish values and traditions, these services embody our progressive approach to spiritual life and are tailored for all generations. While both services aim to be accessible to all ages, those who prefer to move around may find the Ohel to be more comfortable. Our High Holy Day service options reflect the thoughtful, inclusive spirit that defines the Adat Shalom community.
