The synagogue is still closed. We’re sure you’ve noticed. And yet, thanks to the miracle of technology and the wonder of Zoom (currently $417.26 per share, up from $385.29 one month ago), lots of us attend services every week. While relaxing at home, snacks at the ready, we sing the songs, recite the prayers, and thoroughly enjoy the informal and communal nature of prayer every Friday at 7:30 p.m. And we return on Saturday mornings at 9:30, when with a minyan each week these days, we participate in the Torah service — streamed from our beloved sanctuary — leaving the more stressful weekdays behind as we explore the lessons taught by the ancients. 

The operative phrase, of course, is “with a minyan each week.” And that’s where you come in. Make a minyan to recite the kaddish. Make a minyan to read the par’sha of the week. Make a minyan to feel your Jewishness. Make a minyan to feel the glorious effect all week long.

Zoom at 7:30 p.m. each Friday, and at 9:30 a.m. each Saturday. You’ll feel great.
