Lakefront Shabbat Service led by Joel Gratch and Anne Wildman With a Guest D’var from Jon Marshall

All summer long, JRC moves our sanctuary to the Evanston lakefront, with outdoor services surrounded by nature and the beauty of Lake Michigan. This spiritually uplifting (and child and dog-friendly) service feels a bit like summer camp, a bit like Ravinia, and entirely like JRC. Bring your family and friends. Lakefront Shabbat is a wonderful opportunity to learn about JRC. Services will be livestreamed on the JRC Facebook Page for those preferring to join us virtually.

Come as you are! Bring your own folding chair or picnic blanket, and don’t forget the Ruach! All are welcome!

Tonight’s service will be led by Joel Gratch and Anne Wildman with a d’var given by Jon Marshall.
We meet Fridays at Elliot Park with a few exceptions. Check our our evolving Lakefront Shabbat calendar. We’ll be adding details about musical accompanists and member d’var givers throughout the summer.
