Shir Hadash Offers Children's Program This Friday Night

Please join Shir Hadash this Friday, October 4, for a special children’s program during Shabbat services. Children’s service leader Lauren Shook will conduct a wonderful Shabbat experience for children age four through nine, involving welcoming the Shabbat with candle lighting and challah, prayer, song, dance and a craft project. Parents can enjoy the regular services while their children make the most fun out of Shabbat in the classrooms nearby. Services begin at 7:30 p.m. at Shir Hadash new building, 200 W. Dundee Road, in Wheeling, just west of Milwaukee Avenue.
Shir Hadash Synagogue, a Reconstructionist congregation in Wheeling, Illinois, attracts members from Northbrook, Glenview, Deerfield, Highland Park, Wheeling, Buffalo Grove, Arlington Heights and Palatine as well as Chicago, Skokie, Park Ridge, Barrington, and Gurnee.
