Shabbos Tisch at Rabbi Shfra's house

Friday, July 19, 2024 13 Tammuz 5784

6:00 PM - 8:30 PM

At Rabbi Shifra and Peter's house, outdoors on the deck.
 
Join Rabbi Shifra for a new tradition, based on an old tradition. Tisch is Yiddish for table, but it also refers to a festive Friday night gathering, hosted by a rabbi, involving singing, teachings and stories. We will share a Shabbat vegetarian potluck dinner together around one big table, and instead of a separate Erev Shabbat Service, we will welcome Shabbat around the table with song, stories and learning. Mourner’s Kaddish will be recited. All ages welcome. Pre-registration requested. A small donation to offset staffing expenses encouraged. Please bring a vegetarian main dish, side dish, or dessert.
 

PLEASE READ - TISCH INSTRUCTIONS

Please bring your own dinnerware. We are working together to create a zero-waste culture, and although that is a work in progress, we strongly encourage participants to avoid bringing single use disposable items and rather to bring their own plates, cups, silverware, cloth napkins, and serving utensils.

Rachel Kliger has provided these place setting carrier suggestions showing how many people used to attend potlucks and picnics before disposables.

It is very helpful if you RSVP so Rabbi Shifra knows how many chairs and tables to set up, but everyone is welcome, even at the last minute.

We will be outdoors, so please bring layers, as the weather is likely to shift from sunny and hot to foggy and cold.

This is a rustic environment with many tripping hazards, so please be extra cautious as you navigate the property.  

This is an all ages, kid friendly event.
