Shabbat Services

Temple Sinai conducts weekly Friday night and Saturday morning, Shabbat services. Services are generally at 7:00 p.m. on Friday evening and 10:30 a.m. on Saturday morning. It is always a good idea to check the monthly “Bulletin” calendar or call the office (856 829-0658) to check the Service schedule recording. Service times can also be found on our website calendar.

Family Services

Most months a Shabbat Service is designated as a Family Service. This service is oriented toward the children and includes participation from the children in our Religious School, who are expected to attend. Consult the Bulletin for dates and times.

Tot Shabbat

Every other month Temple Sinai holds a Tot Shabbat. This lively interactive Friday night service is especially for young children (six years old and younger) and their families. During a Tot Shabbat service, we celebrate the beauty and wonder of Shabbat through singing, dancing, and story telling, as well as teach basic Shabbat prayers, songs and rituals. Oneg Shabbat refreshments follow the service. Tot Shabbat is a wonderful way to introduce your toddler or preschooler to Jewish worship and to other children in the Temple Sinai community in a relaxed atmosphere. The Tot Shabbat is held at 7:00 pm and usually lasts 30 to 45 minutes. Please refer to the Bulletin for dates.

Torah Spark

Come join Rabbi Perice on Saturday’s at 10:30am for our weekly Torah spark, where we read through the weekly Torah portion and discuss it from several different perspectives: theological, cultural, political, and communal. No prior knowledge is required. Just come ready to learn and engage with the text and your fellow congregants.

Special note: Weekly Torah sparks are typically postponed when we are having traditional Saturday morning services or holiday programming.

High Holiday Services

Services for the High Holidays are held on Slichot night, Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Morning services begin at 9:30 am and are held in the Main Sanctuary, led by Rabbi Perice. A Family Service for children ages 5 to 8 years old and their parents lasts about 1 hour and is held in the chapel at 9:30 a.m. Following the Family Service is a Junior Congregation Service for children ages 8 to 12 years old, also lasting for about one and a half hours. Refreshments are available for the children following both services. Childcare is provided in our nursery room for children ages 18 months to 7 years old, however pre-registration and a small fee are required. Call 856 829-0658 for more information. Congregants will receive High Holiday tickets, with service schedules, in the mail. Tickets are required for admission into the main High Holiday Services for security reasons, and are included as part of your dues. Seating is on a first come basis.
