Shabbat
Fridays | 6:00 – 8:00PM || Saturdays | 10:00AM – 12:00PM
Various Locations
Friday evenings are two-fold: Shabbat at the Rabbi’s and Home Hosted Shabbat.
Shabbat at the Rabbi’s includes home cooked dinner by rabbi, followed by worship led by Rebbetzin Stefanie and music by Robin Rio.
Home Hosted Shabbat is a Shabbat dinner held in a community member’s home.
Both include lighting candles, singing kiddush, and eating challah, followed by a sermon from Rabbi Patrick.
Our Saturday morning options are being redesigned. Join our email list for details!
Pop-Up Shabbat
Various Saturdays
Meet us for Shabbat morning and afternoon at your favorite farmer’s markets and festivals, including VA Pridefest and Carytown Watermelon Festival. We’ll bring a few folding chairs, bottled water, and lots of love. Rabbi Patrick offers spiritual wisdom. Come for a minute or stay the whole day!
Holidays
Various Times/Locations
Our approach to holidays is bold, experimental, and inclusive. This is not your typical “synagogue” service—our events guarantee fun, and are open to the community.

Other Programs
Adult Education with Rabbi Patrick
A few times a year, Rabbi will host a class on an important topic. Sometimes in-person, sometimes online, and always relevant and meaningful.
Spiritual School with Matt Childs
Looking to dive deeper into Jewish texts, mystical traditions, and spiritual practices? Join Kehillah lay leader Matt Childs for Spiritual School, an advanced companion to our adult learning. Classes are held monthly on Discord (online).
Social Circles
Not everything needs to be an “event.” Some of the most meaningful moments happen when you’re just… with people. Take a look at our Social Circles — gather to talk, eat, laugh, reflect, or just be together.
