Join us for Kabbalat Shabbat Services every Friday evening from 7:00 - 8:00pm. We also offer occasional Saturday morning services starting at 9:15am. Services are followed by a brief kiddush and oneg. Members, friends, neighbors and guests are invited.

Services at Congregation Eitz Chayim are traditional and egalitarian. Although we lean towards a relatively conservative style, we are open to change and always willing to challenge established practices. For our Shabbat services we use a non-denominational prayer book which is rich with contemporary English translations, traditional and contemporary Hebrew text as well as complete transliterations.

We also offer many opportunities for participation and are actively looking for members who would like to lead - or learn to lead - services. For more information, please contact us by phone at (617) 497-7626 or email info@eitz.org.
