Kiddush Leader - At SOOJ, we promote the value of following certain traditions that might enhance the joy of a Torah centered lifestyle.  On of those traditions is that of "setting apart" the Sabbath with bread and wine.

We are not necessarily concerned whether your practice  precisely follows the Jewish tradition.  Instead, we want to see what you do in your home to make the Sabbath a joy for your family.

If you in some way follow the Jewish tradition of Kiddush (sanctification) to set apart the Sabbath, and you would like to share your tradition with us, we welcome you to do so. 

We will be opening Shabbat "as a group" as part of the opening session of the festival and then again as part of the "block" meals on the eve of the last day of the festival (we will need 7 different people that evening, one for each "block").  If you would like to perform this service, you will need to bring your own candles and other items.
