🌊 Exotic Shabbat Update 🌊

A little rain isn't going to stop us! We are still planning to hold our Exotic Beach Shabbat service today at 6:00 PM as scheduled.

The forecast may be a bit wet, so please come prepared with rain gear if needed. We will have some tents to hopefully keep us a little dry. We look forward to gathering together at Tybee North Beach for a meaningful evening of prayer, community, and Shabbat.

We hope you'll join us! 🌅✡️
