Welcome to the Shabbat Corner! We'd like to connect you to a thoughtful and diverse collection of reflections on Shabbat through the Union for Reform Judaism's Shabbat Blog.

In addition, please see below for Shabbat materials that we've gathered: melodies and demonstrations for the Friday night prayers for candles; wine and challah as well as Havdalah; and favorite Beth Am Shabbat recipes. We hope this project enhances your enjoyment of this beautiful weekly holiday, and we wish you a peaceful and joyful Shabbat.
