Services

Our service schedule may change in relation to the current Covid risk assessment. At this time, we are having live services on Saturday mornings at 9:30 AM with a light lunch kiddush to follow. Friday night services may be via Zoom, live or hybrid depending on the time of year and our rabbinic schedule. Check our calendar for current schedule.

The following is a previous description of our normal services and programs…

Shaaray Tefila holds weekly traditional egalitarian Shabbat services. We have regular Friday evening services at 7:00 PM, Saturday morning at 9:30 followed by a kiddish luncheon at 11:30, sometimes followed by lecture or discussion. Services and Torah discussions are participatory and interactive. 

Once a month, we will have an alternative service such as Family Shabbat, in which our youngsters will actively participate and apply what they have learned in religious school.  

Jewish Journey Shabbat services will engage those less familiar with the traditional service in a welcoming and supportive environment. These alternative services tend to be shorter and are usually associated with a special Shabbat dinner.  

During the summer, we often hold Friday night services in Crandall Park.  We are always interested in learning new melodies and harmonies.

Please contact us if you need to say kaddish so we can make sure that we have a minyan.

We maintain a full schedule of traditional holiday services throughout the year, including a Passover seder with a catered kosher meal.
