Minyan Story

Minyan Happenings

For many years, Temple Emunah has held minyan twice daily. Beginning in February, we added a 1:30 pm daily afternoon Minh . ah service. In past years, we only davened Minh . ah in community when sunset was after 7:30 pm and we could daven it just prior to Ma’ariv. But now, we will have Minh . ah all year – in the winter at 1:30 and in the summer at 7:30.

In addition to providing a 15-minute respite during the day and an opportunity to say Kaddish, this 1:30 Minh . ah service gives each of us more opportunities to make our 10-for-10. All synagogue members (except in mitigating circumstances) are asked to attend minyan (with video on during a Zoom service) at least ten times each year as part of their contribution to our community, just as all members are expected to pay dues. That is our 10-for-10 Program.

Thank you to all those (listed below) who made their 10-for-10 last year: September 1, 2019 to August 31, 2020.
