Shabbat & Holidays

The OCP offers an extensive array of Shabbat and holiday programming for students and guests. Our Shabbat programming includes beautiful Kabbalat Shabbat and prayer services, inspiring Divrei Torah, delicious Kiddush and Seudah Shlishit snacks as well as occasional community-wide luncheons and other special programming. Our holiday programming varies depending on the holiday but typically includes communal prayer services, meaningful learning opportunities, and many engaging activities and memorable traditions. Please feel free to reach out to the appropriate member of the OCP Board with any questions, comments, or suggestions.
