Avodah (Spirituality)
I love the Shabbat services. Ecstatic dance and transportive lectures/events with Rabbi David and the congregation. It’s giving me a fresh perspective on the tools I rejected in my upbringing, and helping me with this lifestyle of transformation I’m cultivating in my growth and healing journey.
Romemu creates an integral & holistic prayer experience based upon five basic freedoms:
- Movement: Space to stretch, dance and find the natural movement of your body that opens you to prayer.
- Voice: Safety to find many forms of voice, including singing, speaking, crying and laughing.
- Thought: Thinking is both critical and analytical. Both spirituality and intellectual honesty flourish together.
- Silence: Freedom to be silent, to quiet the mind and nurture the soul through time-honored contemplative practices.
- Commitment: An invitation to commit, to be bound to a community that expects and relies upon your active participation, both as members of the congregation and as socially conscious and aware citizens of the world.
We believe that these five freedoms provide the foundation to live more meaningful lives; lives full of loving-kindness, spirit, peace, joy, and commitment.
