Cool ocean breezes and the sounds of sea gulls will form the backdrop for two special Shabbat services this summer. Beth Israel will hold Friday night worship services on the Huntington Avenue beach in Margate, N.J. on July 12 and August 23 at 5:30 p.m.
Bring your own beach chair, come in your flip-flops and dip your toes in the sand as you chant the familiar Shabbat melodies led by Rabbi Michael Feshbach. Families are welcome, and all are invited to come out and experience Shabbat with Beth Israel.
For over 30 years, the beach service has been an annual tradition at Beth Israel, which was the first area congregation to offer a service at the beach. The Huntington Avenue beach is located behind the Margate Library.
In the event of inclement weather, services will be held at Beth Israel, 2501 Shore Road, Northfield, N.J. For more information, call (609) 641-3600 or email bethisrael@cbinorthfield.org.
