Worship and Study Minyan

The Worship & Study Minyan aims to be a gateway into Judaism: we welcome the uncertain and unlearned who are discovering themselves as Jews; also the knowledgeable who are rediscovering their Jewish values. We are a place where people come to learn and stay to teach. Some of our members are well-known Jewish educators and professors; some begin without even alef-bet.

We include students and faculty, staff and community, newborns and elders. Together we make a beautiful noise: singing, praying, discussing. Special events—bar/bat mitzvahs, ufrufs before weddings, baby-namings, daylong study-retreats, etc. enhance our sense of community.

We are participatory, egalitarian, intergenerational, self-governing, rabbi-guided. Our Shabbat service is basically Conservative, but we abridge tradition to make room for a half-hour of lively Torah study and discussion in English, led by a different person each week. Discussion often continues after services, over delicious varieties of kiddush.
