IJC Goes Dutch!

Als onderdeel van onze uitgebreide visie en outreach, organiseert IJC een aantal Shabbat Diensten waarin de voertaal Nederlands zal zijn.
Nederlandstaligen - op welk niveau dan ook - zijn uitgenodigd om mee te doen aan Erev Shabbat Services & Potluck Dinner op vrijdag 19 januari om 19.00 uur in de synagoge. We zullen een eenvoudige siddur gebruiken voor de dienst in Hebreeuwse transliteratie Nederlands.
We raden leden aan om hun Nederlandstalige vrienden uit te nodigen om met ons mee te doen aan deze speciale Shabbat dienst!
