Shabbat Morning Services

We welcome members and visitors to our Shabbat morning services that begin at 9:30 AM and conclude around noon.  Our services are normally led by our beloved Rabbi Marc Soloway with extensive community participation in leading our prayers, Torah reading and Haftarah reading.  We read about one third of the entire Torah portion according to the triennial cycle. Our services are traditional and vibrant with the community joining in singing, at times participating in Torah discussion and dancing.

We are fortunate to have our Hebrew school in attendance once a month with youth services and helping to lead us with their young voices in the some of the concluding prayers of our service. Often our services are followed by a community Shabbat lunch that all are invited to share a bite to eat and friendly conversation.

As a note, at different Shabbat services throughout the month we offer separate Shabbat experiences focused on our younger families and members or those preferring an alternative prayer experience. Please see our calendar for the dates of the services. All services conclude at the same time so that we can all share lunch together as a community.

Volunteers are always needed to help prepare, put out and clean up the Kiddush. Please feel free to help out, Caron Robinson is often in the kitchen preparing before Kiddush and can always use a few hands. email the office at office@bonaishalom.org
