My friend Nathan had invited me to Shabbat last fall. But then he felt like he needed to use all his spare time studying so he didn't fail that quarter. Nathan is a nursing student. So we rescheduled for last night.
Shabbat at Nathan and Staceys' house consists of lighting a couple of candles and singing a song/saying a prayer. Nathan explained it as Christians saying grace. I guess the difference is Shabbat is done on Friday night. I likened it to taking a moment in our busy busy lives to pray/reflect/just stop and breathe.
Nathan cooked spaghetti. The sauce was homemade. There was a fruit bowl and garlic bread. Very nice supper. Then the kids told us stories/dreams before they moved to the living room to watch a movie. Us grown-ups chatted and the time flew by.
