This class is for true beginners. We start at the beginning, learning the letters and vowels, and how to put them together to read words. At the end of the class, students will be able to read basic blessings.

This class is for those who are reading Hebrew (even if slowly) and would like to increase their proficiency. We will use the book, Alef Isn’t Enough, which includes acquisition of key vocabulary from the Siddur, the Haggadah, and the Tanakh.

This traditional evening service takes place at 7PM and concludes at approximately 7:20PM. The prayer service is conducted almost exclusively in Hebrew; however, there are transliterated siddurim (prayerbooks) available. Lay leaders usually lead the service except when there is a special occasion such as a festival.

This group of congregants is working their way through the Talmud, a page a day. They meet weekly for discussions. If you would like to join in the study, click here for the Zoom link: https://zoom.us/j/857762663

This participatory service takes place in the main sanctuary, lasts from approximately 9:30-11:45AM, and is regularly led by Rabbi Eric Solomon. The most creative part of the prayer service takes place during shaharit from approximately 9:30-10:15AM when Rabbi Jenny Solomon assists Rabbi Eric Solomon and leads the congregation in meditative Hebrew chanting and meditation. The second part of the service, the Torah service, takes place from approximately 10:15-11:30AM and includes the Torah reading, the Haftarah (prophetic reading), and an active discussion of the weekly Torah portion. The final section (Musaf) lasts from approximately 11:30-11:45AM. The service concludes with the Mourner’s Kaddish and a closing song. After the service, the entire congregation is invited into the social hall for a Kiddush luncheon. Livestream link: https://www.bethmeyer.org/sanctuary-livestream.html
