    Guidelines for Hosting Kiddush
    and Coordinating a Potluck

    Thank you very much for volunteering to a host a Kiddush or to coordinate a potluck for our community! (Learn how to sign up for a date and get the link to the hosting calendar here.)

    In addition to fulfilling the rituals of Kiddush (blessing over wine or grape juice) and HaMotzi (blessing over challah), these gatherings are wonderful opportunities to help create sacred community. – to feed our souls and relationships, as well as our bellies.

    If you have any questions or are unable to host Kiddush on the day you signed up for, please contact Kiddush Coordinator Audrey Warner or our office manager, Deb Senor (Monday through Thursday, Deb@kolhalev.net or (216) 320-1498).

    Below are links to our guidelines for hosting these events (downloadable PDFs):
