Welcome to B’nai Or’s NEW Family Enrichment Program!

This year we are planning several family enriching events that will combine fun, friends, family, tikkun olam (repair of the world), Jewish learning and holiday celebrations
together in a unique and exciting way. ALL of our events are open to ALL families
(B’nai Or membership is NOT required) and is geared toward children 5th Grade and younger.
Rabbi Lev’s Chug “club” will also be continuing this year. This program is designed for
children in Grades 6 and older. Watch for more Chug News…

In addition to the above events and programs, we will be offering a number of Family
Shabbat Morning Services. These services – designed for families with children ages 10 and
younger – will be led by Singer/Songwriter Sue Horowitz and will be held in the smaller
downstairs chapel in the Wilson Chapel on the Andover Newton Theological School campus.
Coinciding with the regular Shabbat Morning Service, the FAMILY service, however, will begin
at 11:00 AM and will conclude with a community-wide potluck luncheon around noontime. We are SO EXCITED about our NEW programming for children and families and we are looking forward to seeing YOU and YOUR FAMILY and FRIENDS at each and every service and event!

For more information about the Family Enrichment Program, or to RSVP an event,
