Every Wednesday during Elul -  Shacharit Minyan, 7:00 - 7:30 am As a community we will attempt to strengthen our relationship with God by increasing our tefilot at the synagogue. During the month of Elul we will be having a minyan every Wednesday morning at 7:00 am. The dates of the minyanim will be: August 15, 22 and 29 and Sep 5.
