DAILY MINYAN
Mondays & Thursdays.........7:30 a.m.
Sunday..........................:......9:00 a.m.
Legal Holidays.....................9:00 a.m.
Evenings..............................7:30 p.m.
Daily worship is a mainstay of any Synagogue. Without your attendance on a regular basis, our minyanim can no longer be maintained at Temple Beth-El. The morning service currently occurs on Sundays, Mondays and Thursdays only. Our evening minyanim will follow suit if members do not rise to the occasion and commit to at least one evening per week. When a minyan is formed promptly at 7:30, the service will take no more than 15-20 minutes.
If you are uncomfortable with prayer, there are other members who can assist, explain and guide you. Over the years our minyanim have become a part of people's daily routines even though they may have been uncomfortable at first. There is no time limit on learning and making prayer an important part of your daily routine.

THIS DAY IN JEWISH HISTORY
|
August 26, 1943: Germany declared martial law in Denmark. As the Nazis prepared for the deportation of the Danish Jews, Danes ferried over 6,000 Jews to safety in Sweden. This was one of the most famous acts of courage when it came to saving Jews during the Holocaust. Why, when so many others were willing to sit idly by and watch the Jews go their death or to help the Nazis in their work, did the Danes behave so bravely and nobly? Some would say that the behavior of the Danish people was a modern miracle.
