January Shabbaton
January 16 @ 6:00 pm - January 17 @ 9:00 pm

Rabbi Cantor Russell Jayne returns to the OJC to start 2026. It may be the chilly season, but he always warms up our bimah with his insightful services and beautiful voice. A long-time honorary member of the OJC congregation, Rabbi Cantor Russ is the Senior spiritual leader at Calgary’s Beth Tzedec Congregation. We’re grateful that he makes a point to visit us throughout the year! Please join us in welcoming him for the first of his two winter Shabbatons.
Let’s enjoy more of Russ’s showmanship on Saturday evening, as he hosts Jewish Jeopardy at the OJC! We encourage everyone to participate in this lighthearted trivia night. More info here
