Matzah & Grape Juice for Passover in Peterborough!

Home / Bais is a new minyan in Peterborough, aiming to facilitate opportunities for tefillah (prayer), Jewish skill-sharing, and community building

In advance of Pesach we're offering kosher grape juice and matzah on a sliding scale from ZERO to TZEDAKAH.

Est. cost per item is $3.50 per bottle (1.89L) or per 1lb box of matzo. Suggested tzedakah contribution is $6 per item - funds raised will go to the cost of this and future initiatives.

Looking for Shmura matzo? We can do that, too.

Need other kosher goods or ritual items? Tell us in your email and we'll do our best to hook you up.

Oneg Shabbat services!

January 7th 9:30 am – 11:30 am

Where: Beth Israel Synagogue

"Oneg Shabbat" means Joy of Shabbat. Together (and in person!) we’ll daven a few highlights from the Shabbat morning service followed by Torah study of the week’s parsha. Shmoozing, asking questions, and quiet reflection are all encouraged! Whatever brings you joy in our shared space. Feel free to drop in at any time from start to finish.

Bring a comfortable mask! Masks will be required during singing, learning, and socializing. Proof of vaccine is not required for this event.

Available to help? We always need volunteers to act as greeters or to help create the shared service by providing a d'var torah reading, melody, sponsoring a kiddush (or part of the meal), or something else! Email [email protected] with "Oneg Shabbat help" in the subject line.

Access needs? Need a ride/have a ride to offer? Please send an email to [email protected] if there’s anything we can help with!
