For years, Shluchim and youth directors have struggled with finding the right material to engage the youth that come to Shul.
Ten years ago Rabbi Zalman Goldstein, director of the Jewish Learning Group, and author of the popular Shabbat Table Companion, published the Junior Congregation Synagogue Companion which accomplished just that.
The easy-to-hold book included all that is needed to smoothly run a meaningful Junior congregation, providing the basic prayers for Friday night and Shabbat morning in large, clearly-set Hebrew, along with easy-to-read English transliteration and translation. Intuitive icons indicate the proper prayer for each age group. It also contained an Alef-Beis chart, morning blessings, selection of Torah verses and blessings for food and drink. It quickly became a staple in Chabad Houses and schools worldwide.
To celebrate the 10th anniversary, a special 3-day sale has been launched by The Jewish Learning Group beginning today, where you can get the book for your synagogue or school for as low as $3.37 each in quantity (normal retail is $9.95).
COLlive readers can take an additional $10 off orders of $50 or more by going to www.jewishlearninggroup.com/Promo.html.
We look forward to each new book and cd because of their outstanding quality. Including the youngsters is brilliant and long needed! Can’t wait to see it implemented in our Shuls. With lots of luck, from your families all over the world!
Great going group admin!! Keep using your talents to help people all over the world!!
