Shabbat Across America and Canada
Friday night, March 7, 2025
Since the terrorist attacks in Israel on October 7th, 2023, the world’s Jewry has gone through some really difficult and dark times. There has been a dramatic increase in antisemitism. Jews have been attacked and made to feel unwelcome. Synagogues have been burned down and covered in graffiti.
What the world needs to see are more displays of Jewish pride and unity. Now is our chance to counter these dark times with Jewish light.
On March 7th, exactly 17 months after those horrific attacks on the Jewish homeland, we are asking your community to join us for NJOP’s 29th Annual Shabbat Across America and Canada, the original Shabbat unity event. This special night is an opportunity to come together as one family and one community, to celebrate Shabbat and spread the light of Jewish unity into the world.
Let’s bring people into our synagogues and Jewish centers like never before. Participating in NJOP’s continent-wide event will enable those in your community to share this special unity experience with thousands of North American Jews. To positively impact upon participants, we invite you to offer an uplifting program including an explanatory service, traditional rituals, a delicious Shabbat meal and lively discussions to ensure a wonderfully inspiring and impactful Shabbat experience.

Coming Sunday, March 16
