SUMMER SHABBAT Service | 6:30 p.m. Friday Evening Shabbat
We take the opportunity during the summer months to experiment with different worship styles. Members of our congregation often take a more active role by lending their musical skills, or by offering a D’var Torah or another reflection for Shabbat. Summer services are led by either Rabbi Briskin or Cantor Berlin. Shown here, a special service held on the sands of the Jersey Shore. Look to the weekly Shir Happenings email for updates and further information.

CHEVRAT TORAH Shabbat Morning Minyan | 10:15am Saturday Mornings
Chevrat Torah, or Friends of Torah, began in 1995 to allow congregants a more casual and interactive Shabbat morning experience. Chevrat Torah continues today following the same principles: Eat, Sing, Pray, and Learn!
We meet every Shabbat at 10:15 a.m. in person in the more intimate space of the Chodorow Family Life Center and on Zoom. A rotating group of clergy and educators lead our 45-60 minute service followed by an interactive, engaging and participatory discussion on the Torah portion or other elements of Jewish learning or practice. Typically we conclude at noon. Chevrat Torah has become the “regular” Shabbat morning service for a dedicated minyan that is always looking to invite more people to participate. Join us when you are able. We are proud to say that Chevrat Torah has not missed making a minyan since 1995 and would love you to join us in the future. Look to the weekly Shir Happenings email for updates and further information.
Join us via ZOOM LINK if you are unable to participate in person

Individuals of all ages/levels of experience are encouraged to join us.
