Men's Club Shabbat

March 16 - 18, 2007

It can vary from congregation to congregation, but in general, it is an opportunity for Men's Club members to lead Shabbat services. With some clubs it is the Friday night service, with others it is held on Saturday morning, and in still others it's both. There are also Men's Clubs that expand their Men's Club Shabbat observance to include a program on Sunday morning and others make an entire Men's Club Week as a means of showcasing all that their club does.

When is it held?

The FJMC traditionally schedules International Men's Club Shabbat on Shabbat Hachodesh each year. Shabbat Hachodesh was chosen because it commemorates our beginnings and signifies a time of fulfillment. Here are the dates for the next two years:

• March 16-17, 2007
  Vayakhel-Pekudai (Exodus 35:1-40:38)
  Shabbat Mevarchim

• April 4-5, 2008
  Vayakhel-Pekudai (Exodus 35:1-40:38)
