Women's Tefillah Group - This Shabbat!
Join us this Shabbat as we come together in prayer and read the Torah portion that bids farewell to our matriarch Sarah and welcomes our matriarch Rebecca. It’s a beautiful moment in the Torah and a meaningful opportunity to share in learning, connection, and tefillah.
We’ll meet in the Beit Midrash / Social Hall for Shacharit at 9:30 AM and Torah reading at 10:30 AM, followed by Mussaf and Kiddush.
Whether you’ve joined us before or this will be your first time, we’d love for you to be part of it!
