As we continue to improve Chai Lights, occasionally there are many more exciting offerings to share than can fit into one email screen, and your email program will "clip" the message. If this happens, simply click "View Entire Message" at the bottom of the email to see the rest of the message. You can also find links to all programs, including Daily Minyan and Shabbat, through the B'nai Tikvah home page or calendar.
Daily Minyan & Shabbat
A note about Zoom Services: NEW ZOOM LINK Beginning on Purim morning (this Thursday, March 17) and going forward: ALL B'nai Tikvah services using Zoom will use the SAME, CONSISTENT Zoom link (the one currently used for Daily Minyan). We will conitnue to publish that link in Chai Lights and on the B'nai Tikvah home page, Daily Minyan, and Shabbat webpages; and on the B'nai Tikvah web calendar (which might require clicking the service time and then copy/pasting the link into your browser).

Now is the time for the courage to preserve and protect our health, our families, and our livelihoods. Together we must invest in our planet. For information google Earth Day, 2022.

Minyan List for the Week
Congregants commemorating a yahrzeit may wish to honor that event by leading some portion of the evening’s service. It might be as small as leading a prayer or could be leading all of Mincha or Ma’ariv. If you are interested in taking this honor feel free to call Joe Doniger at 781-910-7601 or email us at MinyanRangers@bnaitikvahma.org at least two days in advance, and we’ll help make arrangements with that night’s minyan leader. Due to the pandemic, as many people are observing a virtual Shiva week, if you inform the leader, a third Mourners' Kaddish will be included as is done in a shiva house.
