Friday evening is always anticipated at our house. It means everything stops, the candles are lit, the family is gathered, and we can enjoy each other and time with the LORD on His holy day. The "wine" is always new wine....Welch's purple grape juice, only the best! And for our treat....well.....it varies greatly from something home-made to something bakery-made to Pop-tarts when I was short on ideas once :-) Overall, it is a great way to start the Sabbath. Shabbat Shalom to all !!!

Baruch Atah Adonai
The Hebrew blessing over the new wine is repeated by all. "Baruch atah Adonai, Eloheinu Melech ha-olam, borei p'ri ha-gafen." Translated : Praised are You, God, Ruler of creation, who creates the fruit of the vine. Glasses are "clinked" each with all the others, and Shabbat (Sabbath) is welcomed in !!! Yay !!
Candles always make the ambience more holy, and a special "treat" is served, either store-bought or homemade(even more special!) Happy Sabbath to all...even if you're not Adventist or Jewish, it's STILL the Sabbath :-) Shalom !!!
