What is a Wild Shabbat Minyan?
As Jews have done over the centuries, a Shabbat minyan is a quorum of ten or more people who gather to celebrate Shabbat together by praying the special Shabbat liturgy and reading the Torah. In the great sanctuary that is wilderness, with the increased awareness of God’s presence that so many of us experience in the natural world, we combine contemplative chant and prayer, Torah study and festive Shabbat eating, singing and fellowship. Expect little or no hiking; a substantial amount of time for hitbodedut (alone time for spiritual purpose) and lively Torah study from Rabbi Comins’ unique, wilderness perspective.
