Lakefront Shabbat Service with Rabbi Rachel Weiss

June 19, 2026 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

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. Click here to access our digital Lakefront Shabbat Siddur.

This Friday we kick off our summer tradition with a Community Potluck! Bring something vegetarian or fish (nut-free) to share!

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.

6:00 pm | Bring Your Own Picnic
7:00 pm | Service

In the case of inclement weather, check this calendar listing after 4pm on the day of Lakefront Shabbat for updated information.
