This Shabbat
Join Cantor George for Shabbat virtual candle lighting this Friday, November 26 at 7:00 p.m. by clicking on the blue title above.
This Shabbat, Saturday, November 27, 10:00 a.m. morning service and Torah study will be led by Alan Silver. This week’s Torah portion is Vayeishev, Genesis 37:1-40:23–beginning the Joseph story. Why does the Tamar-Judah story "interrupt" the Joseph story? Will Judah cover up the truth to shirk responsibility? What do these stories tell us today? Must our leaders be perfect or are flawed leaders acceptable or in fact preferred?
Connect with us virtually to join the service and discussion by clicking on the blue title above.

Reconstructing Judaism Convention
Mark your calendars to join us from March 23 – 27, 2022 for B’Yachad: Reconstructing Judaism Together. Over these four days, both in person and virtually, we will learn from and with experts, scholars and lay leaders. We will engage in conversations, ask questions, and listen. We will pray together, sing together, dance together and celebrate all that we do every day in our communities to reconstruct Judaism. B’Yachad is being planned as a hybrid convention – you can join us in Tysons Corner, Va., or from your own home or perhaps with a small group of fellow community members for a watch party.
B’yachad will be an opportunity for you to reconnect with friends from conventions past and to form new friendships, as well as to deepen your sense of belonging to this community of communities. If you choose to give your time, energy and resources to this gathering, we hope you will be transformed—perhaps by an encounter, a powerful teaching, or a song that touches your heart. You will leave with many takeaways -- resources, some answers, and even more questions. We will know that we have been successful if you return home excited about all you experience and inspired to share what you learned here that can strengthen your own community.
Cantor George -Kol HaLev's organizational contact for the Convention--encourages you to sign up! It will be a lot of fun, and it's a great opportunity to make and renew connections with members of other Recon congregations. And there's plenty of information on the convention website.

Shabbat Music
Kol HaLev, with the guidance of Cantor George has been introducing new, exciting, stimulating, joyful music to our services. Much of this music is for Friday nights and is played by Kol HaLev Unplugged on the fourth Friday night of the month. Kol HaLev Unplugged has made recordings so that the community can learn the melodies more easily. This link takes you to the recordings and the lyrics for the songs. You can also check out our latest You Tube video of Kol HaLev Unplugged singing Cantor George's Shalom Rav! Come to Shabbat and enjoy guitar, drum, voices and song!
