Beit+Tefilah+Israeli+(Tel+Aviv,+Israel)

This self-described secular Israeli kehillah will continue building its family-based Shabbat community through family-based study and activities (family Kabbalat Shabbat services, family Shabbat meals, and joint learning for adults and adults around havdalah). Through these learning frameworks involving children, parents, and the two together, the congregation aims to create in a context leading to and shaping the production of an original Israeli Family Siddur siddur. By combining Jewish tradition and contemporary secular Israeli culture in a family learning environent, Beit Tefilah Israeli aims to create a model of family-spiritual-communal experience uniquely tailored to the needs of secular Israelis that will intensify the family learning experience and the Shabbat experience in the congregation and at home.
