Shabbat

At Congregation B’nai Yisrael one of the most meaningful times for our families to come together is our Friday Night Shabbat Service.

With the lighting of the candles, we leave our weekly preoccupations behind and experience an inner transition and relaxation as the mood of Shabbat sets in. 

We use Mishkan Tefila to assist our congregants in finding meaning in Shabbat.

Shabbat service is a time for some to say Kaddish, the prayer recited in memory of a loved one on the anniversary of his or her death (yahrzeit).  It is customary for a family to attend Shabbat services on the occasion of the anniversary of a death.

Shabbat services take place every Friday night at 7:00pm unless otherwise indicated.
