Se’udah Sh’lishit – Third Shabbat Meal
Saturday, May 4, 4 PM
In the past, Jews would commonly have two meals per day but on Shabbat, there would be a third meal to help denote it as a unique day. Part of the tradition dates to more mystical times when Jews would study as the sun was setting and Shabbat was dwindling: this was considered a special time. We will celebrate Se’udah Sh’lishit on April 6 with shared readings, songs, and stories, and of course a special (light) third meal. Afterward, we will have a Havdalah service to conclude the Sabbath. Then, we will kick off the new week with songs and musical instrument jam. This is a family event – bring the kids!
