The Shabbat Odyssey Kabbalat Shabbat service fea- tures nzggunim (wordless Chasidic melodies) plus liturgical texts set to music composed by contemporary Jewish composers such as Debbie Friedman, Craig Taubman, and Paul and Saul Zim. Cantor Berris produced the CD. B'nai Moshe is at 6800 Drake Road,West Bloomfield. The first part of each week's Shabbat Odyssey serv- ice, which takes place before the actu- al beginning of Shabbat, includes instrumental music, using electronic synthesizers, guitars, and tam- boulines. Fresh fruit, cut-up veggies and other light snacks are available from 5:45 p.m. on. The service is a lively, interactive Kabbalat Shabbat experience using the liturgy of the Conservative Siddur adapted for optimal participation. It aims to get people out of their seats and onto their feet, singing, clapping their hands, and dancing around the room to bring in the Shabbat with joy and serve as an emotional kick-start for a full 25-hour Shabbat experience each week. Absolutely no knowledge of Hebrew is required in order to partici- pate and enjoy. The program is open to the community. rchiyah Elects New Officers Meditation Service At Shir Shalom Mary Ellen Gurewitz has been elected president of Congregation T'chiyah, the Detroit area's first Reconstructionist synagogue.
