Join us for a special shabbat service, led by Rabbi Eger and Rabbi Chaiken along with our house band KOLective Sound. We will also welcome Karmel Melamed, an award winning internationally published journalist, activist and attorney based in Los Angeles. Born in Iran, Melamed fled that country at a young age after the Iranian revolution with his family to escape persecution from Iran’s newly established Islamic regime. As a journalist since 2000, he has given a new voice to the successful Iranian Jewish community living in the United States as well as having covered issues relating to Iran and the Middle East.
