About a year into a rabbi's tenure at a new congregation, they are officially installed as the community's rabbi. Join us for a shabbaton to celebrate Rabbi Faryn's installation as the official Rabbi of Or Shalom! We will sing and pray together, engage in a meaningful ritual to welcome Rabbi Faryn deeper into the Or Shalom community, and learn from Rabbi Faryn's teachers, mentors, colleagues and friends.

This event will take place in-person, but we will live-stream the Friday night and Saturday morning services for all to watch. Stay tuned for livestream information.
