Services
Our services are a combination of traditional and contemporary prayer and music. Each service includes lively congregational melodies, traditional chant (nusach), meaningful English readings and explanations of the prayers, and a thought-provoking sermon or brief Torah study. Our talented choir adds their voices to our services several times a year on Friday evenings and holidays..
We invite you to read from the Torah on Saturday morning Shabbat services! See available dates and sign-up online HERE or you may email our Ritual committee at Ritual@bethelohim.org.
