Since 2012, as part of M’kor Shalom’s effort to reach out to our membership, we have been streaming our Shabbat services live over the internet. These webcasts typically occur on the first and third Fridays of each month. Additionally, webcasts include most of the High Holy Day services and occasional special events. Using any computer, tablet or mobile phone with internet access, you can check our schedule and view our webcast at www.mkorshalom.org/webcast.

Initially, our target audience was congregants who, due to physical limitations, illness or lack of transportation, could not attend the service in person. We have found, however, that our viewers are much more diverse. Viewers are local and from as far away as California, Florida, Canada, Italy and Switzerland.

My husband and parents attended services tonight while I stayed home with my young children. …This may be life changing. Thank you so much for making this available. I loved everything about the service. – Jill

Last year, my daughter streamed from her semester abroad in Europe, and this year her boyfriend, who is attending law school [and] had no service near him, streamed two of our services in between his classes, setting it up in an extra classroom and bringing his law school friends. – Stefanie

The webcasts have been well received and truly have an impact on our viewers.

Thank you! I know … the power and value of being able to be part of the service in this way. It was very meaningful, and I am so appreciative of your efforts. – Robin

It is thanks to our small but dedicated group of volunteers that we are able to continue to webcast. Our team members have ranged in age from 11 years old to over 60, include males and females, and represent the tech novice to the tech savvy. And whether there’s just one person or as many as 80 viewing, they all know it is well worth the effort.

We are always looking for new people to help out with just a few services each year. No experience is necessary, and training is provided. To join our team, please email webcast@mkorshalom.org or contact the synagogue office at 856-424-4220.

Funding for our webcasting service is provided, in part, by a grant from the Community Fund of the Jewish Community Foundation, Inc. To make a contribution to M'kor Shalom for these services and more, click here.
