Please join us for a special Veterans Shabbat on Saturday, November 7 at 10:00 a.m. as we come together as a Beth El community to honor and thank the brave men and women who have served our country.

Veterans Shabbat is an opportunity for our congregation to recognize the dedication, courage, and sacrifice of those who have worn a uniform. It is also a time to express our gratitude to the spouses, children, parents, and loved ones who have supported our service members throughout their military service.

During Shabbat services, we will proudly recognize the veterans in our Beth El community and thank them for their commitment and service.

We encourage all veterans in our community to join us and, if they wish, wear their military uniforms as we recognize their service. Whether you served many years ago or more recently, we hope you will allow our congregation the opportunity to honor you.

We also invite our entire Beth El community to join us for this meaningful Shabbat. Your presence is an important way to show our veterans and their families how deeply we appreciate the sacrifices they have made.
