Upcoming Events
Shabbat Around Birmingham
“Shabbat B’Yachad—or “Shabbat Around Birmingham”— are YBIB member hosted Friday night dinners. In the past, each host received a stiped of $118.00 to host at least 6 people (including themselves) at their home. To receive the stiped, hosts must consent to the following:
- Sending a picture of their gathering to YBIB that will be used on social media and for publicity.
- Agreeing to submit a follow-up summary email including thoughts and feelings about the Shabbat experience—including one “AHA” moment from the experience.
- Confirming the names and number of attendees at the Shabbat dinner.
In addition, each host would receive a Shabbat B’Yachad branded goody bag which would include Shabbat themed items such as candles, challah, grape juice and possibly a Shabbat “conversation starters game.”
If you are interested in hosting a Shabbat B’Yachad dinner, contact rivac@bjf.org for more information.
