Welcome to DC Minyan!

Join DC Minyan for Friday night services on 1/13 starting at 6:00 p.m. in the Community Hall of the DCJCC, 1529 16th Street, N.W.

Over the past ten years, DC Minyan has grown from a small group of people meeting in a book store to a full-scale community with weekly and holiday services, family programming, and other important community functions. On February 3-5, we will come together at the DC JCC for a Shabbaton celebrating DC Minyan’s past, present and future. We hope to celebrate this important event with many of our members and alumni. Registration has been closed, as this event is now full. To sign up for the wait list, please click here.

The cost of the shabbaton, including all meals and programming, is $18 for each DC Minyan member and $36 for all others. Member children are free. The cost for all other children, ages 2-12, is $18.  For more information or to volunteer to help with the shabbaton, please email Brianne Nadeau and Sandra Marks at anniversary@dcminyan.org.

We are excited to announce that DC Minyan’s 10th anniversary celebration will include a Community Pledge. The team of volunteers running the Community Pledge is committed to helping each member find something to do, learn, give, or plan with a special focus on doing something NEW. Please take a moment to fill out the Community Pledge form by clicking here. It will only take 1-2 minutes to complete. After you submit the form, a member of the pledge team will follow up with you to help get you started. Please contact Abigail Romirowsky and Stephanie Schwartz at pledge@dcminyan.org with any questions!
