Come to morning minyan
Come to morning minyan
Dropping in for morning minyan is a great way to get a taste of the Ohel Minyan. We meet in the Water Building (237 Prospect St.) every morning, Monday through Friday at 8:15 AM, and Sundays and Federal holidays at 9:00 AM. Morning minyan usually runs 35 minutes on days without Torah reading (most Sundays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays) and about 45 minutes on days with Torah reading (usually Mondays and Thursdays). Check out our FAQ section if you want to know more about our services.
