DC Minyan is a traditional egalitarian Jewish community located in Dupont Circle. We seek to create an environment that will welcome, enrich, and challenge people of all ages, from all backgrounds, and with all levels of familiarity with Jewish texts and ritual. As a lay-led community, DC Minyan derives its strength and its warmth from you.

Shabbat Services

SHABBAT MORNING SERVICES - 6/21

Join us for Shabbat Morning Services on Saturday, June 21 at 9:15 am. Kids programming will begin at 10:30 am.

Kiddush (with cake!) is sponsored by the following people before they depart DC for various lengths of time:

  • Ethan Kahn
  • Daniel Chudnow, Yael Nagar, and Lev Chudnow Nagar in honor of a combined 24 years of DC Minyan. There are not enough words to express what this community means to our family. Thanks for all the years of friendship, meals, davening, and love. We'll be back!
  • Simone Wallk, who would like to thank DC Minyan, its leadership, and volunteers for great davening and community.
  • Mendy Fisch, who would especially like to thank the people of all ages who volunteer regularly to set up Kiddush. 

FRIDAY NIGHT SERVICES - 6/27

Join us for Friday night davening on Friday, June 27 at 7:00 pm.

Get Involved

JOIN THE PARENTS AND KIDS COMMITTEE!

The Parents and Kids Committee is looking for new volunteers! We are particularly interested in more volunteers to lead Middle Minyan and Midrash Minyan, organize programming for teenagers, and coordinate holiday events for kids. Many of these opportunities have low time commitments but are valuable to the minyan. Please contact Tamara Litwin at lifecycle@dcminyan.org with questions, or to nominate yourself or a friend.

CALLING ALL B’NAI MITZVAH

We will kick off a new learning cohort this fall for students celebrating a bar or bat mitzvah in the 2026–2027 school year. This past year, students with b’nai mitzvah during the 2024–2025 and 2025–2026 school years gathered for social action and learning programs with their families. Please email Tamara Litwin and Deena Fox at lifecycle@dcminyan.org if your child will be celebrating a bar or bat mitzvah during the 2026–2027 school year and would like to participate in the next cohort.
