Shabbat and Holidays
Shabbat and Holidays with us
Shabbat
Worship services are held every Shabbat. Please note that during the summer months, Friday evening services will not be held as we complete construction on our new bathrooms.
Saturday morning services begin at 9:30 am.
At both services, the Mourner's Kaddish will be recited. You will also have the opportunity to offer names for the Mi Sheberach prayer.
We hold many special Shabbat programs throughout the year. Always check the calendar to register and stay up to date.
Holidays and Festivals
Services are also held on Jewish Holidays and Festivals. Most morning Holiday services begin at 9:30 am. Check the calendar for specific dates and times for Holidays and Festival observances and services.
High Holy Days
PLEASE CHECK BACK SOON FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THIS YEAR'S HIGH HOLIDAYS
Members will have an opportunity for Aliyahs as well as to participate in the services in other ways. Check the newsletter or contact the Synagogue office for details regarding tickets. Service start times may vary for Rosh Ha'Shanah and Yom Kippur, so please check the Calendar.
Office Closures
In conjunction with Conservative Judaism, our Synagogue Office and Gift Shop are closed on Shabbat, Jewish Holidays, and the High Holy Days. At these times, the office telephone will not be answered. The office is open on some Festival Days. Please check the Calendar.
Security & Visitation Procedures
Given the current situation and heightened risk to our community, we ask that everyone carefully follow our security and building entry/exit procedures.
If you plan to visit the Shul:
Please call the office ahead of time at: 910-762-1117 to let us know when you plan to come.
When entering the building:
Please do NOT let anyone you do not know walk in behind you. They must individually ring the doorbell and be granted access.
If you plan on bringing a friend or visitor to services:
Call the office ahead of time to let us know so that we can have them on our pre-approved visitor list for services that day.
We continue to prioritize the safety and well-being of all our congregants and visitors, and we thank you for your patience and understanding during this time.
