Mitzvah Opportunities
Attend a minyan, pack food, brighten someone’s day, serve a meal…
Help Make a Minyan
It is often difficult in the summer months to get a minyan at the daily services (7:00 a.m. and particularly 5:45 p.m.). Not only is attending a minyan a mitzvah for you, it allows those in mourning to say kaddish. Please help ensure that we are never without a minyan. Come see that your presence truly counts!
Do you have ONE free hour during the week?
Volunteers are needed for 2-4 hours per month for friendly social visits* to members who are unable to attend services and other functions. *No driving, lifting, counseling or healthcare involved. Training will be provided as a two-hour session with a staff member from the Twin Cities Jewish Healing Program and our Shul Nurse, Hadassah Zohara will be available for further educational assistance and support. Your visit can brighten someone’s day and make them feel reconnected to the community of Beth El. If you can help, please contact Hadassah via e-mail or at 952-920-3512 x 7356.
