Sacred Song Circle with Cantor Barbara
Shabbat, Jul 19th 1:30p to 2:30p
Join Cantor Barbara for an hour of singing that connects us to the sacred. Songs from Jewish and other sources, wordless melodies-niggunim, chant, and prayers. Music helps connect us to something larger than ourselves. Voices raised in song blend our souls and help create a sense of belonging that can be transcendent. One reason we sing our prayers is that melodies and music have the power to go beyond words in Hebrew or English, to touch us emotionally, physically, spiritually. Bring your voice, your presence, and nourish your neshama.
