If Kavana is not affiliated with a Jewish movement, what can I expect at prayer services?
• Great question, and the answer is: it depends. The Shabbat morning minyan is a traditional Hebrew service with a Torah reading. Kabbalat Shabbat services are a mix of Hebrew and English, as are most holiday services. All Kavana services are egalitarian, with women participating equally and everyone sitting together. At all services, you’ll have an opportunity to participate, whether it’s moving chairs, reading an English passage, or chanting from the Torah in Hebrew. All services involve a lot of spirited singing.
