PLYMOUTH -- From 6 to 9 p.m., Friday, March 5, members of the Jewish community of the South Shore and surrounding areas will gather at Congregation Beth Jacob’s Community Center, on Court Street at Brewster, downtown Plymouth, in an unparalleled display of Jewish revitalization and Jewish unity. Conceived and organized by the National Jewish Outreach Program in 1997, Shabbat Across America/Canada represents a united effort by the entire Jewish community to renew interest in the fourth of the Ten Commandments, observing a weekly day of rest (Shabbat in Hebrew). Attendees will experience a special Friday night service and, for those who come early, a Shabbat dinner sponsored by PARTY, the congregation’s high school youth group, to be followed by a half hour tutorial of festive Shabbat songs taught by Cantorial intern Elise Barber. The Shabbat service begins at 7:30 p.m. followed by Oneg Shabbat (dessert).
