We cultivate a traditional-egalitarian davening atmosphere that is committed to powerful prayer experience, within the broader communal fabric of Jewish learning and socializing in Brookline and Boston.
We welcome new faces and seasoned ones; people of all ages, backgrounds, genders, and orientations; and encourage everyone to join us in taking responsibility for the group experience.
We are the Friday night service of Congregation Kehillath Israel.
We meet every Friday night for mincha and kabbalat shabbat services at KI's 384 Harvard Street campus.
