The last night of Passover (for those outside of Israel and not associated with the reformed denomination) is beginning as this newsletter is being sent out (scheduled in advance - so my apologies it is arriving during the chag). But, another Shabbat is just around the corner. So, I thought we'd take a look at Shabbat Candle Lighting.

Shabbat - Candle Lighting
Shabbat. oh glorious Shabbat! We look forward to you each week. To signify your beginning, we light the Shabbat candles.
