Shabbat Around WashU
How do YOU do Shabbat?
WashU Hillel is excited for our 5th annual Shabbat Around WashU in 2020 - a university-wide Shabbat celebration. Host a Shabbat dinner for a small group of friends your way, anywhere on or off campus.
The opportunities are endless – it could be a laid back Shabbat dinner where you and roommates simply come together in your suite to relax after a long week; a social justice Shabbat dinner; an interfaith Shabbat dinner with some classmates; or a picnic Shabbat dinner on Art Hill in Forest Park for you and a special someone!
Hillel will provide you with the following for your gathering:
- Grape Juice
- Challah
- Candles
- A Shabbat resource card
- Choice of: a $5 stipend per person to help you buy or cook dinner (please keep your receipts!) or a catered meal from Kohn's including roasted chicken, potatoes, and green beans*
- Paper goods / utensils
Hosts will also get a commemorative gift to help you celebrate Shabbat!
You can also sign up to attend a Shabbat dinner if you don't feel like planning or even if you just want to meet some new people!
*Note: The Kohn's Dinner option will come at a cost of $8 per person, and the host will need to make the payment up front then be reimbursed by Hillel.
