Message from President
Shabbat Shalom friends!
​​​​​​​I'm happy to tell you that Rabbi Yonatan will be back next week - refreshed and revitalised from his holiday. 
In the same breath, I want to thank our team of brilliant Gabbaim for leading us through the end of December and for all of January. Kol Ha'Kavod to all.
This week is Parshat Bo which means 'Come!' The command that was given to Moses to come to Pharaoh. 
In turn, I hope you will come to join us for services this week - we aren't nearly as daunting as Pharaoh.

Kavanah means intention and these sessions are designed to direct our intention (or attention) towards the divine source within each one of us through intentional breathing,  chanting phrases from Jewish prayer/Torah and simply finding space to prepare ourselves for a meaningful day of Shabbat and the traditional services that follow.

Where: Meet in the Rabbi’s office (at KN)
