What to expect from a
Metivta Contemplative Shabbat Service:

• After a introductions and greetings we begin the morning service with setting intentions and alternating chant and meditation.

• Next we transition into the Torah service. Metivta's tradition is to do group aliyot. Attendees will be invited "up" to participate in any aliyot whose theme resonates with then.

• The Torah service is followed by the drash (interpretation of the Torah reading) given by one of our service leaders.

• Drash is followed by healing prayers and the Mourner's Kaddish

• We close with poetry, announcements and kiddush.
