Which prayers require a minyan? Is there a difference between Birchot haShachar and Psukei d'Zimrah? What am I supposed to do during the Amidah if I don't read Hebrew? Why do people bow during the last verse of Lecha Dodi and how do I do it? If you've asked any of those questions, this class is for you!

Join Rabbi Emily for "Back to Basics: A 3-part (Re) Introduction to Prayer at WES" where we’ll explore the flow of Shabbat services, delve into the meaning of central Jewish prayers, practice sacred choreography, and deepen our understanding of liturgy. This class is open to learners of all levels and will be accessible to those without much background. While knowledge of Hebrew is unnecessary, familiarity with Shabbat services at WES will be a plus! This class is open to members and non-members. Members see the weekly newsletter or members side of the website for Zoom link. Others please contact the office at admin@westendsynagogue.org.
