Shabbat BaBayit (Shabbat in the Home)
Join the Temple Beth David Community for Shabbat BaBayit (Shabbat in the Home) on Friday, January 10!
Gather together in the home of fellow members of our temple community to celebrate Shabbat. Shabbat BaBayit is a way of enjoying Shabbat in the homes of congregants and getting to know each other better. We invite you to open their homes as hosts or to sign up as participants. All ages are welcome! You will be matched with other families with similar age children in a close geographic area. Everyone will contribute food or beverage for the meal. Each home will be provided with resources to create a meaningful Shabbat dinner experience. It will be an enjoyable and memorable evening!
Feel free to include any information and requests in the sign up. Once you are matched, you will receive more information about the location and time of your dinner. Please contact Rabbi Karen with any questions.
