Our weekday minyan is a lifeline of connection to community, whether it’s part of your regular practice or something you want to check out for the first time (or the first time in a while). You will be warmly welcomed!

Please join us Sunday, Monday, Thursday, and Friday mornings (at different times and in different formats, detailed below) and Monday through Thursday evenings on Zoom. The Calendar will always have the most up-to-date information about the current Minyan schedule.

Morning Minyan:

  • Sunday mornings at 8:15 am in person or on Zoom

  • Torah reading mornings at 7:15am in person or on Zoom

    • Torah reading mornings are:

      • Mondays and Thursdays

      • Rosh Chodesh

      • Chol Hamoed Sukkot

      • Hanukkah

      • Chol Hamoed Pesach

      • Fast days: We will follow our regular times and venues (in person/Zoom/both) on fast days.

        • When a fast day falls on a Sunday, Monday, or Thursday, we will hope for an in-person minyan so we can do a full Torah service. When a fast day fast day falls on a Tuesday, Wednesday, or Friday, we will keep our regular practice (i.e., meet on Zoom only and not conduct a full Torah service).

      • In other words: We hope for an in-person minyan so we can do a full Torah service every Monday and Thursday and when Rosh Chodesh, Chol Hamoed Sukkot, Hanukkah, or Chol Hamoed Pesach falls on a Tuesday, Wednesday, or Friday. That means on all of these days, minyan begins at 7:15am, in person and on Zoom.

  • If there is a special request for a Shiva or a yahrzeit occurrence, we will meet on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings at 7:15am, on Zoom.

Evening Minyan

  • Evening Minyan meets Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday on Zoom ONLY unless there is a special request.

  • During Daylight Savings Time (March — November), Evening minyan starts at 5:30pm with Mincha followed by Maariv.

  • When we are on Standard Time (November — March), Evening Minyan starts at 5:45pm with Maariv.
