Our members enjoy regular Shabbat services, led by Rabbi Mark Glickman and Cantorial Soloist Laura Cannon, and we provide a diverse and vibrant Jewish community experience for you and your family.

We provide a full spectrum of Jewish religious services and community experiences for our members. Together, we worship as a community, celebrate our many holidays and provide stimulating education for children and adults alike.

Join us for our regular Shabbat services every Saturday from 9:30 to 11:00 am. Shabbat at Kol Shalom is always filled with beautiful music and joyful voices. We provide complete high Holiday services, and our celebrations of Jewish festivals--Purim, Passover, Shavuot, Sukkot, Simchat Torah, and Hanukkah--brings us together again and again to express our joy at and commitment to living a Jewish life.

Our synagogue and learning center are nestled in a beautiful natural setting at 9010 Miller Road NE, near Bainbridge Gardens. Come in and see what we're all about!

Super Supper - Volunteers needed  

Each month, different faith communities on the island provide meals for the last five working days of the month to individuals and families who might be having trouble making ends meet until the next payday. Sadly, the number of people needing to rely on this service is growing rapidly. In recent months, over 30 people are coming to have a hot meal each night that super suppers are offered. Meals are served at Eagle Harbor Congregational Church on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays (at St. Cecilia's on Wednesdays).

Congregation Kol Shalom provides food and service for the meal on the last Tuesday of each month, in conjunction with Cedars Unitarian Universalist Church. We alternate food responsibilities with Cedars--one month, we provide a main dish; the next month, we provide bread, salad, dessert, milk and juice.

In the past, there has been a small core of dedicated volunteers from CKS who show up each month and make the meals happen. With larger numbers of people coming for supper, we need more volunteers! Volunteers prepare the food (main dishes must be assembled and cooked at Eagle Harbor Congregational Church, or be a packaged meal, such as frozen lasagne; salads, breads, and dessert can be purchased, or prepared at home), serve, and clean up.

As always, thanks for your generosity!
