Shavuot/Pentecost 2026 (Feast of Weeks)

May 24-26, 2026
Shavuot (שָׁבוּעוֹת in Hebrew, also pronounced Shavuos) is a two-day Jewish holiday that commemorates the date when God gave the Torah to the Jewish people at Mount Sinai over 3,000 years ago. Preceded by 49 days of counting in eager anticipation, Shavuot is celebrated through desisting from work, candle-lit dinners, staying up all night to study Torah, listening to the reading of the Ten Commandments in synagogue, enjoying dairy foods and other festivities.

The Way will be celebrating SHAVUOT on Sunday May 24th at Kendrick Lake Park @ 12 noon to 3pm. There will be food (Oneg style) and a short teaching. Please bring a meal to share and picnic equipment (blankets, camping chairs, etc). You can sign up at the link below:
