Services
Prayer can heal and enrich our lives. It can unlock joy and gratitude. Spiritual life and prayer are a dynamic part of Kol Emeth. Our services are participatory and we invite you to be among the leaders. Our services are egalitarian because we hear in each other's voices a sign of God's presence. Our services take place in community because face to face human connection is an essential component of spiritual life. Feel welcome to come to any of our services and experience the warmth, joy, and song of our prayers.
