Shabbos at LevLA – You’ve Gotta See This 💙

Hi friends,
It’s Shlomo & Galit here

👋



Thank you for being part of our LevLA family — your support brings the magic to life.

Now here’s something we couldn’t wait to share:

Our sweet friend Azriel (you might remember him!) is back with his parents in LA for more surgeries. And guess what he asked as soon as he arrived?

“Are we going to have a big Shabbos this week?!?!”
(That’s how you know this place is special.)

After his first surgery, Azriel was too weak to come down for the meal —so we brought the Shabbos up to him! We sang his favorite songs around his bed, and poof — the hospital worries melted away, even just for a moment.
That’s the magic of LevLA.

Shabbos at LevLA = Love, warmth, and lots of food

Early Kabbalat Shabbat 🙂

Early Shabbos table

We start with an early Kabbalat Shabbat (yes, even before sunset!)

The table is full, the room is glowing, and the vibe is joyful.

Our guests? From all walks of life — many are young professionals far from family, and here, they find one.

Some have even moved into Pico just to be closer to this community. What a zechut!!

We’ve been hosting 65+ guests every Shabbos lately — and watching our LevLA family grow is the greatest joy.

Thank you for making this possible.

We’ll be in touch again soon… Tishrei is coming and so is our annual campaign! Stay tuned

😉

I'd love to contribute

 

With love and gratitude,
