The Shabbat Morning Minyan, which has met for over a quarter century in the minyan room, still strives to satisfy the needs and desires of those worshipers who seek a ritual of prayer somewhat more conservative in practice. While certainly still in the reform tradition, more use is made of Hebrew and traditional prayer construction. Lots of participation in prayer, singing and Torah discussion, a hallmark of the Minyan, brings a warm feeling of Shabbat. Generations at Beth Emet have brought their children to experience this tradition, many growing up with us and becoming leaders in their own Jewish communities. A kiddush follows every week.
Child care is also available, and everyone is invited to kiddush following services.
You are encouraged to wear your tallit . Please contact Marilyn Cohen of the Ritual Committee if you would like to read Torah or Haftarah , recite blessings, or lead services or Torah discussions. All congregants are welcome to attend. This service is designed to offer a sense of community, comfort and hope in traditional and innovative forms of Jewish prayer. All who struggle with ailing bodies or souls, all whose loved ones are suffering, are invited to join us.
