Community Kiddush Potluck

What is the Community Kiddush Potluck?

Our Community Kiddush Potluck is a communal gathering that takes place after Saturday morning service. It's a wonderful opportunity to connect with others, enjoy a variety of delicious foods, and make Shabbat even more special. Whether you’re a regular attendee or new to our community, you’re warmly invited to join us.

How It Works

1. Sign Up: Use the form below to let us know what dish you'd like to bring. Whether it's a salad, main course, or dessert, every contribution is appreciated.

2. Bring Your Dish: On the day of the event, bring your dish to the refrigerator marked Community Kiddush Potlock in the dairy kitchen lobby. Please ensure your dish is clearly labeled with ingredients to accommodate those with dietary restrictions.

3. Enjoy and Connect: After services, we’ll gather together to enjoy the food and each other’s company. This is a great time to meet new people and deepen connections within our community.

UPCOMING DATES: 

Stay tuned for more chances to participate!
