Green Shabbat Weekend


  • Isaac Agree Downtown Synagogue 1457 Griswold Street Detroit, MI, 48226 United States (map)

Join us for an environmentally themed Shabbat weekend! After our Friday night services at 7:00pm, please join us for an environmentally sustainable kosher vegetarian meal at 8:15pm. We are excited to host the CEO of Hazon, Nigel Savage and a group of community and IADS Green Team members (Rachel Klegon, Sara Kaplan, and Eitan Sussman) who are working in different fields tied to the environment about how they integrate their Judaism into their work. We will have a panel discussion and then break into smaller groups.
On Saturday morning, Shabbat services will begin promptly at 9:00am. At noon, we will discuss environmental themes from the Torah, led by Nigel Savage, over a delicious environmentally sustainable kosher vegetarian meal.
