Charles P. Scott Center for Spiritual and Religious Life

Come enjoy homemade chai and homemade cookies with members of The Scott Center staff as we slow down our pace for a bit of socializing and crafting.  Watercolors, polymer clay, collaging, grown-up coloring books, and beading materials provided!

Join the Scott Center for Spiritual & Religious Life for a welcome-back Mexican feast! No RSVP’s needed.  Click here for a map to the walking path to us at 46 South St.

This will be a gentle practice that supports both fasting and reflection as we prepare ourselves for the final prayers of this day. Please wear comfortable clothes and bring a mat.

You’re invited to break the fast together! Bagels, lox, and all the trimmings plus fruit salad, drinks and more. Please RSVP with this form by September 18: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeQe0Sy830c1okp-MmrtXbTC71OX2m…

Described as spiritual, joyful, powerful, and raucous, Shape Note (or Sacred Harp) singing is a traditional American style of four-part, a capella, community singing popular in the United States before the Civil War. This style still thrives across the US and in the UK, with strongholds in the American South and New England. It is called Shape-Note because the notes of the scale are indicated by distinctive shapes and names: Fa – triangle, Sol – circle, La – square, and Mi – diamond.

Everyone is welcome as we celebrate the beginning of Shabbat and Sukkot, the Jewish harvest holiday. We will begin with a lively prayer service from 5:30-6:30 pm, and continue with dinner until around 7:30 pm. Come for both or just one of these parts.

Please note that some or all of the event may take place outside in the Sukkah (temporary booth) if the weather permits, so dress appropriately.

We continue the celebration of Sukkot and Fall Family Weekend with a Hillel Bagel Brunch. All are welcome (with or without your family) to come share bagels and a full spread of toppings, with time to meet other students and families. If the weather permits we may convene outside in the Sukkah, so please dress appropriately.
