Join us for Shabbat!
Shabbat has always been the time when our community comes together. While a great deal of things have changed in the wake of the COVID-19 Pandemic, our commitment to celebrating Shabbat is not one of them. All are invited to join us in person and online for services.
Friday night and Shabbat morning services are led by Hazzan Elisheva Dienstfrey and Rabbi Steven Rein.

Digital Sefer Torah
Planning on reading Torah for Shabbat? Curious about what our Shabbat Torah scroll looks like on the inside? You're in luck! Thanks to the combined efforts of several Agudas Achim members, we have uploaded and named each column of Torah from our Shabbat Torah scroll.
To take a look, just click here. For your convenience, we have labeled each PDF according to book, chapter, and parsha. For example, if you are looking for the reading from Parashat B'Shalach (Exodus/Shemot 14:1), you could find it in the PDF file labeled "c78.Shemot.13-14.Bo-Beshalach.pdf", with "c78" standing for Column 78."
Many thanks to the Ritual Committee and to our office staff for helping turn this idea into a reality. If you need assistance finding a particular potion, please contact Hazzan Dienstfrey.
Sponsoring a Kiddush
