Expanding Shabbat Youth Opportunities
Along with Shabbat morning services, Beth David continues its Shabbat morning parsha program for children ages 6-12 years of age with Estee Axelrad. This group will convene from 10:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. in the play area on the far side of the synagogue parking lot. Please ensure your child has a water bottle and mask.

We also invite children of all ages to participate in supervised play in the play area across the parking lot. Under the supervision of a parent or other caregiver, young children are invited to bring their own books and toys for quiet play in this area, as they would in the sanctuary, maintaining appropriate physical distance from non-family members. Masks are necessary for children over the age of 2 years old.

Supervised child care for children under 5 is available 10:30-11:30am.

PLUS, Parsha Cards are back! Shabbat morning for all children concludes with a snack, a parsha card and a story read to the kids by Rabbi Adler.
