Celebrate the last days of summer with Kol Hadash as we kick-off the start to Sunday School at this free, all-ages family event.

Bagel brunch will be provided for everyone (including gluten-free). We welcome non-members to join us — there is no expectation of a commitment by coming to this event. Rabbi Adam Chalom, our Youth Education Director, B Mitzvah Coordinator and Sunday School teachers will be there to answer questions about our education program and congregation. Everyone is welcome at our events so you can meet us for yourself — no charge and no commitment. Kol Hadash Humanistic Congregation celebrates Jewish identity and culture — for us, it’s about people, not prayer.

Is a B Mitzvah Right for Your Family? B Mitzvah FAQ Session for Parents
Thursday, August 29, 2019 7:30 PM - 8:30 PM
Are you debating how (or whether) to seek a Bar or Bat Mitzvah for your child? Are you feeling pressure because “how it’s supposed to be” and “how it’s always been done” isn’t a good fit for your family? Are you concerned that non-Jewish family members might not be allowed to participate fully? Are you looking for a custom celebration that will be both personal and meaningful, balancing Jewish traditions and your unique family heritage? Explore your options during this free, informal FAQ session with Kol Hadash Humanistic Congregation’s Rabbi Adam Chalom, the Youth Education Director, and B Mitzvah Coordinator. You may also schedule a one-on-one information session in-person, by phone or email. Everyone is welcome at our events so you can meet us for yourself — no charge and no commitment. Kol Hadash Humanistic Congregation celebrates Jewish identity and culture — for us, it’s about people, not prayer.

Family Shabbat celebration
Friday, February 14, 2020 6:00 PM - 6:30 PM
(Recurring Weekly on Friday, between 9/6/2019 - 5/31/2020)
Our family Shabbat celebration is an energetic, musical worship experience for families with young and school-age children. It includes English and Hebrew prayers and songs and is open to anyone that would like to attend. At the end of this casual, accessible service we gather our entire community to light candles, make Kiddush, and say the family blessing together.
Family Shabbat celebrations occur each Friday September through May that Shoresh meets. Check our calendar at https://www.kamii.org/cal for the full schedule.

Join us for a fun and casual event that is lively and musical—and tailored to young, energetic kids. Tot Shabbat will include songs, stories, movement, a snack, and free play. And coffee for you! This month, we'll explore the sense of touch with plants and fruits for Tu Bishvat. No RSVP is needed, and families of all types and backgrounds are welcome.
