Sunday Morning Learner’s Minyan at BTBJ in 5781

Do you ever consider the mitzvah of supporting our community and enabling those who need to say Kaddish to do so? BTBJ is eager to ensure that we have a minyan on Sunday, Monday and Thursday mornings. Please join us at the following Learner’s Minyanim as we pray together as a community.  Come find out more about what we do, how we say it and why. 

“Sundays with the Rabbi”, after Sunday morning minyan at 10:45 am

1. October 25 – “What’s in a Hebrew Name I?” –We will take a look at our names, see if they are Biblical or not and discuss their significance. 

2. November 15 – “What’s in a Hebrew Name II?”

3. December 6 – “The Significance of the Minor/Major Festival of Hanukkah”.  How can we infuse serious significance to Hanukkah besides making it a time of gift-giving?
