Join Us for Shabbat!
Celebrating Shabbat together is one of our community's most precious rituals, and the diversity of our community—our blessedly wide range of ages, family structures, and prayer preferences—calls us to explore and experiment with different types of services and service times. In doing so, we affirm our commitment to a broad-based practice where everyone can find their place in our Shabbat community.
At Congregation BJBE, music is at the heart of our spiritual and communal life. It uplifts, connects, and inspires us. Please read more about our myriad musical opportunities.
If you can't join us in person, you can watch Shabbat services live. You can easily find both our Friday night service and our Saturday morning Kol Shabbat service at one link! Just click the button below.
