Shabbat Candle Lighting

At Temple Beth El, we like to invite our members to lead the congregation in lighting candles to welcome Shabbat. This includes offering an English reading and reciting the blessing* in Hebrew. Often, those who light candles are celebrating a special event or milestone. 

*Please note that, since this act fulfills a commandment, at least one person lighting the Shabbat candles needs to be Jewish.
