Welcome to Kol HaLev!
We are still holding the majority of our services and programming on Zoom, including:
|
• Shabbat services |
• Torah Study • Book Group • Youth education, and more |
In addition, on June 14, 2021, the Kol HaLev board passed a proposal permitting in-person OUTDOOR gatherings under certain conditions; going forward, some services, committee and other meetings may take place in-person outdoors, so check the calendar for more info.
Board policy now permits outdoor in-person gatherings, unless and until the Pandemic Advisory Committee advises the board that the public health situation merits a suspension or reconsideration of this policy. Attendees at all in-person outdoor gatherings must comply with the health and safety practices determined by the board at the time of the gathering.
Health and safety protocol: In deference to our community values of inclusion, welcoming and caring, all vaccinated participants at in-person outdoor gatherings must either a) wear a mask, or b) practice social distancing at 6' apart; unvaccinated participants (over the age of 2) must both wear a mask and practice social distancing.
Members: Zoom links for services and programs will be sent in your Weekly Update emails.
Non-members: We welcome your participation! If you are interested in attending our online services, please email presidents at Kolhalev dot net (type this into your email's "To:" line, omitting the spaces and replacing "at" with "@" and "dot" with ".") with your full name, email address, phone number, location, and how you learned about Kol HaLev. High Holy Days information for guests will be coming soon!
Handouts for upcoming Shabbat services (service booklets, service outlines, Torah study material, etc.) can be downloaded from this folder on Fridays after 4 p.m.
Thank you all for your flexibility, creativity and patience. We offer prayers for everyone's good health.

Pearls of Blessing: Selected Blessings of Rabbi Steve Segar
This slim, elegant volume of eighteen blessings, written by Rabbi Steve for the thematic aliyot in our Shabbot morning Torah services, celebrates Rabbi Steve's 18th year as spiritual leader of Kol HaLev. More than 20 current and former Kol Halev members had a hand in taking this book from conception through printing.
Along with a preface written Rabbi Jeffrey Schein, there's a tribute to Rabbi Steve by the editors (some truly beautiful parts were penned by Bill Scher-Marcus). Thanks to an anonymous donor who underwrote the cost of printing, all proceeds from book sales support our sacred commmunity and its future.
Bring home the ruach of Kol HaLev! Makes a great gift, too! Purchase online here.
