Junior Congregation
A more advanced, age-appropriate Shabbat morning service, aimed at students in Grades 3-6, Jr. Congregation combines a thoughtful prayer experience with discussion, games, stories, songs, and movement. Students are invited to bring an adult with them (but it is not required) and are encouraged to participate in leading the service with the leaders.
