Services at Beth El
Beth El holds traditional and non-traditional egalitarian services throughout the year. In addition to weekday, Shabbat and holiday services for the congregation as a whole, we offer a regular schedule of services for pre-school children and school age children.
Weekday Minyan
Morning and evening minyans are held in the Chapel on each weekday, Sunday morning through Friday morning. The morning minyan is held at 7:00 AM Monday through Friday, and at 8:45 AM on Sunday. The evening minyan is held at 7:30 PM Sunday through Thursday. More details...
Friday Evening Services
On Shabbat evening we offer a wide array of services for young and old alike. On many Friday nights we offer two Kabbalat Shabbat services, one at 5:45 PM and one at 7:30 PM. The earlier service includes a full Kabbalat Shabbat recitation and a teaching from one of our rabbis. The later service offers a more cantorial rendition of Kabbalat Shabbat, a sermon from one of our rabbis, and an Oneg Shabbat after the service. More details...
