This Saturday night we begin reciting the Selichot prayers in preparation for the High Holidays.

Join Congregation Bonai Shalom and Hebrew rabbinical student Eli Herb this Friday for a special Shabbat service and kiddush.

For Selichot this year, Bonai Shalom is excited to host a unique pair of peace makers: a Palestinian activist and a Jewish settler rabbi!

On Saturday, August 31, Congregation Bonai Shalom will observe the season’s first recital of Selichot, preceded by a screening of "Defending Your Life."

Bonai Shalom hosts a special program before Selichot with the performance of an extraordinary new work.

To help us prepare emotionally and spiritually for the awesome days ahead, join our Selichot program this Saturday night.
