Wednesdays with Shinshinim
Wednesday nights from 6:30-7:30 PM
Activities and discussions with our Shinshinim (young Israelis) and NCSY Chapter Advisor ranging from the silly to the sublime, on the themes of Israel, Jewish ethics, and upcoming holidays.
Dinner always included.
*If a teen becomes a regular Wednesday night attendee, we ask for a $360 suggested donation to cover the cost of dinner for the year.
Regional Programs
Teens are invited to join city-wide and regional NCSY events, to meet other teens from around Montreal and beyond. These include Shabbaton trips, learning programs, and social events.
Volunteer Opportunities
Throughout the year, teens are invited to volunteer their time and talent within the congregation’s activities. For example, they might help with a Purim carnival or Chanukah party for younger kids. As part of the Shaar community, our teens are encouraged to give back.
Community Service
The Shaar offers many opportunities for teens to complete their community service hours:
Monitoring our games/activities at our Purim and Chanukah celebrations
Becoming a teacher’s assistant at Netivot Afternoon School
Becoming a Bar or Bat Mitzvah Mentor
Preparing meals at MADA
Visiting the elderly at Place Kensington
Assisting with Tot Shabbat and Shabbat in the Park
