For members pre-K to 6th Grade
Shabbat Yeladim (Children’s Shabbat) is a fun, creative, meaningful Shabbat experience for our LCLJ learners in pre-K to 6th Grade. Each Shabbat Yeladim includes a Kabbalat Shabbat service led by our t’filah specialist, a story or teaching on the week’s Torah portion or upcoming holidays, and/or a unique and exciting program facilitated by different URJ Camps and our educators. Shabbat Yeladim is followed by a family Shabbat dinner. Registration is not required for Shabbat Yeladim, but members should check their email for dinner registration.
