Partnership

Perrineville Jewish Center offers Friday evening and Saturday morning worship services are egalitarian and are conducted both in Hebrew and English.  The Hebrew has English translation and transliteration. In conjunction with the Rabbi, men and women act as service leaders. Our Shabbat morning services largely follow conservative practices. 

On Friday evenings, our Rabbi teaches those in attendance about a variety of topics ranging from the Torah parsha of the week, Talmud and Mishna.  Saturday mornings include the full Birkot Hashachar, Pesukei Dezimara, Shacharit, Torah and Musaf services.  Adult education in Torah as well as discussions about a myriad of topics related to Judaism take place after services.  We h0ld weekly Onegs and Kiddushes that allowed congregants to socialize and build relationships and bonds with our clergy as well as other congregants.

High Holy Day services follow the Conservative ritual, with a considerable amount of repetition of prayers in English and opportunities for congregation involvement. All are welcome. 

As a community, PJC comes together share in one another's simchas (joys) and sorrows.  From baby namings to consecration, Bnai Mitzvah to weddings and funerals, PJC offers a warm and accepting space to come together to celebrate life's wonderful moments and support one another in times of sadness and strife.  PJC is also in possession of a cemetery and onsite chapel that is available to all congregants in good standing.
