Welcome to B’nai Israel! Shabbat is a most special time at B’nai Israel. Our Friday evening services are brief, participatory, and user-friendly, filled with singing and ruach (spirit). Periodically, these services are enhanced with special themes or followed by dinners and special programs. The warmth of B’nai Israel is particularly visible on Shabbat morning. In addition to celebrating baby namings, b’nai mitzvah, and aufrufen, we honor members of our community for various life-cycle events. We also offer youth services for tots to teens, along with learner services and Torah discussions for adults. We look forward to celebrating Shabbat with you.
