What is the Summerlin Minyan Project?
We are a Jewish Prayer Group that currently meets roughly one Shabbat per month (Shabbat Mevarchim). The location varies from month to month. We are a traditional, egalitarian, participatory welcoming Minyan.
Traditional - While we do not have a set Siddur (Prayer book), we
follow the traditional liturgy used by Orthodox and many Conservative
synagogues as found in Artscroll or Birnbaum Siddurim.
Egalitarian - Women participate equally with men. Women have aliyot and can lead the Prayer
service.
Participatory - Sort of like a co-operative, everyone is expected to
help out in some way. You may lein Torah
or lead a portion of the service. If
this is not your skill set, you can help with the kiddush, set-up/clean-up or
help with children's programming. Also,
if you want to learn how to lein or lead, we have people who can help you with
that too! We don't believe in
bystanders.
Welcoming - We are open to people of all
Jewish backgrounds. If you are looking
for a meaningful, traditional, egalitarian participatory minyan - check us out
