NEW THIS YEAR: Learning for Parents! Once per month on a Thursday evening, come together with other grownups to connect over gorgeous torah study, hosted in members’ homes.
Shababa:
A hallmark of the Family Center approach, Shababa is a special Shabbat gathering and meal for young people (0‐6) and their grownups. It invites each and every person in the room to be part of a joyful and playful, often themed, celebration. We offer Shababa at our main location and at Levine Academy. High Holiday Big Tent Services:
On both days of Rosh Hashanah and on Yom Kippur, we gather outside in our beautiful courtyard to mark the new year with music, prayer, and joy. Sukkot Dinner:
We create edible Sukkot with graham crackers, frosting, and lots of sweet treats. Then, we join the Shearith community for festive dinner in our Sukkah. |
Simchat Torah and Playground Opening:
We can’t wait to celebrate the Torah, the Tree of Life, as we open and dedicate our David A. Segal z”l Family Simcha Play Centers!! Grade Level Shabbat Dinners:
Religious school and day school students and their grownups are invited to delicious Shabbat meals so that each grade can get to know one another. Family Fun Shabbat:
A wonderful opportunity for grade‐level students to practice leading the Shabbat morning service in a low‐key, laid‐back setting. Stay for games based on the weekly Torah reading, and of course, lunch! K‐7 Shabbat:
At the end of a long week, join us for a joyful and relaxed Kabbalat Shabbat service, yummy dinner, and fun Shabbat activities for both kids and their grownups. Yad b’Yad:
A sweet program for grandparents and their little ones (0‐4). |
Havdalah and Movie Night:
Come for dinner, a candlelit ceremony to say goodbye to Shabbat, and a movie! You bring the stuffies and sleeping bags and we’ll provide the movie snacks. Tiny Treasures:
Our annual celebration of all the new babies born to Shearith families! Family Retreat:
A wonderful opportunity to experience an immersive Shabbat in community. The kids have a blast but the grownups have the most fun! Family Seder:
The most entertaining Passover storytelling, including a full seder meal. Messy Party:
Celebrate the beginning of summer with slime, mud, soap suds, paint, and more! |
