mitzvah to honour a Yahrtzeit or other important family occasion by making a
Tzedakah donation. To donate to the synagogue or sponsor a Kiddush, please
contact the Dorshei Emet office.
MORNING MINYAN
Minyan takes place every
Monday and Wednesday morning at 7:30am, followed by breakfast. Monday is a

minyan.
If you are saying
Kaddish, observing a yahrtzeit, or marking a special occasion, please

warm and inspiring ambience among friends.
