Dear friends
A word from Bircat Shalom
בס״ד
Thank you for joining Bircat Shalom for the High Holidays once again. We are proud to celebrate our 21st year together.
This year is especially meaningful as we reflect on all we have endured these past few years — and we are filled with gratitude that so many who were missing have returned home to us. We remember those we have lost, and we continue to hold our brave soldiers who fight for the land of Israel in our thoughts and prayers. Even as we continue to face the ongoing challenge of antisemitism, we remain stronger together. Am Israel Chai!
Our Beit Knesset, alongside Rabbi Mordekhay Shushan, holds daily minyanim and Torah studies — Gemara, Musar and Midot — early each morning. We celebrate haggim, Rashei Hodashim, weddings, bar and bat mitzvahs, and memorial services for our beloved friends and family. Our members also support families in need in our community through their generous contributions to the gmach we run.
Our vision is to grow this congregation into a holy sanctuary for all Jews, members and non-members alike. We would love for you to join us every morning for learning and services at our synagogue in Mission Bay: 10300A Courtside Ln, Boca Raton, FL 33428.
We promise a beautiful and meaningful experience, especially Shabbat mornings when we all enjoy the tefillot and the Torah reading with our senior hazan Meir Azoulay, followed by Torah study with our spiritual leader, Rabbi Mordekhay Shushan. Stay for kiddush and the best hamin in Boca. For more information, contact Moshe at (561) 756-6059.
On behalf of Bircat Shalom, we ask that you look deep into your hearts and consider a donation to our modest Beit Knesset so we can serve the community with dignity and spirituality. Bircat Shalom is a small neighborhood synagogue sustained solely by member donations — we do not require members to pay any dues. We could not have survived all these years without your dedication and support.
Any amount donated, big or small, is truly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your generosity.
Wishing you all a Shana Tova U'metuka and Gmar Hatima Tova,
Bircat Shalom — West Boca Raton Sephardic Synagogue
