Welcoming Shabbat the secular way

Every Friday at sunset, hundreds of people gather on hill facing sea at Tel Aviv Port to greet Jewish day of rest with singsong. --- Tzofia Hirschfeld

Some people express their love for Shabbat by lighting candles, other add a synagogue prayer, a meal and songs. Some love it through dancing, and others – like the Beit Tefilah Israeli organization ("Israeli Prayer House") – love it next to the sea.
