OUR SHABBAT WHAT IS IT?
An entire day during which people stop daily activities to take time in their hands and to make it theirs, a day that gives people the opportunity to come out of daily routine and to see life from another point of view.
Shomrim*ot think that in the selfish and competitive society of nowadays it is fundamental to celebrate the Shabbat. As Heschel did, Shomrim*ot think that taking time to look at what they have done and think of what they want is the only way for to actually create something in the world.

Kabbalat Shabbat
“Judaism teaches us to be attached to holiness in time, to be attached to sacred events, to learn how to consecrate sanctuaries that emerge from the magnificent stream of a year. The Sabbaths are our great cathedrals. (..) The meaning of Shabbat is to celebrate time rather than space. Six days a week we live under the tyranny of things of space; on the Shabbat we try to become attuned to holiness in time. It is a day on which we are called upon to share in what is eternal in time, to turn from the results of creation to the mystery of creation, from the world of creation to the creation of the world.”
- Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel

“Blessed are you the Shabbat. May you bring with you serenity, the quietude after a week filled with educational and social labor. Bring a space in which we can weave together countless dreams together and apart. Bring time of forgiveness so we could hear other’s heart beats. Blessed are you. Blessed your light.”
“We bless for the vine and the yield of the field, the gift of the earth and people, and for a broad and good land.”
