Please call ahead to make sure someone will be on hand to assist you.  Or, if you just have a few questions you can call us at 386-675-6615 and we'll be happy to assist.

Still trying to decide?

Have you attended a service? Check out our Calendar or Events tabs for this week's service times, and call the office to confirm. We encourage you to visit on a Friday evening. You'll find a friendly congregant at our Welcome Desk who will answer your questions, provide you with membership information, or introduce you to some new friends! Prefer to join us over Zoom? Please call the office to receive that week's links. 

Have young children? Bring the kids to Tot Shabbat with the Rabbi, held every third Friday of the month. Or, come to one of our Family-Friendly Shabbat services on the first of every month. You are also welcome to sit in on a TBE Tots class with the Religious School. Call us for this month's schedule.
