Outdoor Friday Evening Service
Friday, April 30, 2021 • 18 Iyyar 5781
7:00 PM - 8:00 PMB'nai Israel Parking LotIn accordance with Montgomery County guidelines, we are excited to bring our community together for another outdoor Friday Evening service on April 30 at 7:00 PM in the B’nai Israel parking lot.
We look forward to joining our voices for the melodies of Kabbalat Shabbat in a safe, socially distant environment. Please BYOC (Bring Your Own Chair) – this service is not drive-in style. There will not be assigned spots, but the parking lot will be clearly labeled with directions where to park and where to gather to safely social distance.
Paper copies of the service will be provided, but please feel free to bring your own siddur. If there is rain in the forecast, we will make a determination about whether to hold the service by 2:30 PM on that day.
Space is limited. Please register below for 1 family unit and indicate in the Notes box how many people in your family unit will be attending.
Questions? Contact Rabbi Mitchell Berkowitz.
(This service will not be available via Zoom. Our 6:15 PM service will be broadcast from Dweck Sanctuary via Zoom as on all other weeks.)
Sorry, Registration has ended.
