Get Involved

There are many opportunities to get involved in the Minyan! We welcome everyone's involvement in all aspects of services, including children who can lead Ashrei and other prayers.

To lead services (daven), email the davening co-coordinators Mitchell Moss and Cameron Wheeler at temdavening@adasisrael.org. Daveners are needed each week for P'sukei d'Zimrah, Shacharit, and Musaf. The minyan does the full repetition of the Amidah.

To read Torah (leyn), contact the Leyning co-coordinators, Shuli Carroll and Sam Swire at temleyning@adasisrael.org. The Minyan reads the full Torah portion each week and divides the leyning among multiple readers. Email Shuli to be added to the leyners email group list and to receive the current leyning spreadsheet.

To give a D’var Torah, please email coordinators Betsy Strauss and Dan Chudnov at temdvartorah@adasisrael.org.

If you would like to be hosted for a Shabbat dinner, lunch, or holiday meal, please email temquestions@adasisrael.org.
