A native son of San Francisco, and Congregation Emanu-El, Rabbi Herst has written nine novels and lectured extensively in academic and non-academic circles. He is an ordained Reform Rabbi with a doctorate in Middle Eastern History. His undergraduate and graduate degrees are from the University of California Berkeley, the University of Chicago, Johns Hopkins University and the Hebrew Union College. His latest novel is Destiny's Children, a carefully crafted and well researched saga of post-Civil War California—one of the most colorful and inspiring periods in our history.

BECOME A SHABBAT GREETER AND ENHANCE OUR SHABBAT HOSPITALITY

We are always looking for ways to increase inclusiveness and
hospitality for both congregants and visitors at our Shabbat services. We want everyone to be able to say, “I was warmly greeted at Congregation Emanu-El.”

As a member of the congregation, please consider participating as a Shabbat service greeter any time you arrive a bit early at a service. No need to be scheduled.

Just stand at the sanctuary entrance, smile and greet with “Shabbat Shalom,” and possibly hand out books. Make our synagogue even friendlier.

For more information, contact Terri Kraus at (415) 751-2541 x111 or tkraus@emanuelsf.org

SOMANU-EL

SOMAnuEl will resume in September.

Congregation Emanu-El heads south to celebrate Shabbat every Fourth Friday of the month! Please join us at the Bernal Heights Neighborhood Center located at 515 Cortland Avenue.

This popular, musical, upbeat Shabbat service, is perfect for all ages. The community is welcome. Stay each month at the Potrero Hill Neighborhood House after the service for a delicious Mediterranean feast. The cost is $10 for adults, $5 for children 3-10, and free for children under 3. RESERVATIONS AND PRE-PAYMENTS ARE REQUIRED BY THE THURSDAY BEFORE THE DINNERS.

Register online

Mark your calendars for the fourth Friday of every month.
