Together on March 15 for Shabbat of Unity

Show your love and solidarity with Israel and its citizens next Friday, March 15 during Shabbat of Unity, organized by the Federation/Synagogue Relations Committee. On this special evening, synagogues throughout Miami-Dade County will host Shabbat dinners as a way to encourage their members, local friends and neighbors to find comfort in community. Individuals are also joining the effort to host private dinners through OneTable, a Federation partner and nonprofit dedicated to Jewish community-building through Friday night Shabbat rituals. Our Shabbat of Unity will be a testament to Jewish strength and perseverance as we pray for the safety and well-being of Klal Yisrael (all of Israel), give thanks, eat, drink and celebrate the blessings of Shabbat, while sending a warm embrace to our extended Jewish family. Click here for a list of participating Miami synagogues or to host or join a private Shabbat of Unity dinner.
