Monroe Monthly Minyan
2026-03-17 19:00
Welcome to our monthly minyan in Monroe! This does NOT take the place of our weeknight minyan in the synagogue. But, we recognize that, for some, it is a far drive to come to North Brunswick from Monroe, so it is our hope that monthly minyan will help support and provide community and outreach to our Monroe members.
Services will begin at 7pm, and will take place at Jewish Family Services, located at 1600 Perrineville Road, Suite 26 (Stop & Shop Shopping Center).
For those of you concerned that it is not the exact date of a yahrzeit, please come and say Kaddish in Monroe anyway, and support others who are saying Kaddish!
Questions? Concerns? Suggestion/Comments? Contact Bobbi Binder, via the synagogue office.
