Shabbat/Havdalah Babayit 
("Shabbat/Havdalah in the Home")
Young Adult Edition!
As a way to further build our young adult community here at B'nai Havurah, we wanted to modify our Shabbat/Havdalah Babayit model to make an approachable "come as you are" space for young people to experience Jewish community together- all while in the home of another Jewish young adult. We define young adults as anyone 45 and younger. Each gathering will include Shabbat blessings or havdalah, fabulous company, and a meal to share. You are invited to register to attend for the first ever Young Adult Shabbat/Havdalah Babayit below!
This program will continue for with one gathering a month for 3-4 months, as is always open to adjustments as needed. We are currently seeking hosts! Please see the outlines for hosting below.
HOSTING
What we ask for from hosts:
- Have room for at least 8 people
- Provide space to do Shabbat blessings/do havdalah, and host may add additional programming if wanted
- Provide some level of food and drinks (but funding is available and staff will by providing wine and paper goods)
-
Be prepared to welcome people they do not know into their home
The host gets to decide:
- If they want to have any additional theme or activities at their event
- If they want to allow kids to come
- If they want to host a shabbat dinner or havdalah meal, and which date they prefer
- How they want the event to be advertised and if they want to communicate with possible attendees directly or have it go through staff
ATTENDING
What we ask for from guests:
- Do not bring any additional people with you beyond who you register for
- Have a genuine interest in the B'nai Havurah community
- Bring an item to contribute to the meal if requested by the host
- Come in with an open mind and a want to meet new people
INCLUSIVITY
We include and celebrate all of our community members. Some homes may not be fully accessible to those who use a cane or wheelchair. Also, not all community members have a means of transportation to dinner. If you have questions regarding the accessibility of a home or need a lift, don't hesitate to contact Hannah at youthandfamily@bnaihavurah.org.
Dinner Four
Young Adult Havdalah Babayit - Platt Park
Saturday, April 26th – 6:00 pm
Hi! We are an interfaith couple who enjoy nerdy and pop culture conversation. We like to read, hike, rock climb, and pursue all sorts of hobbies, from crochet to Dungeons and Dragons. But most of all, we like to hang out and eat.
We will plan on a dairy/ pescatarian menu but can definitely accommodate various dietary restrictions and allergies if you give us a heads up! A little bit of a potluck is also lovely.
The house is pet free with plenty of street parking and is close to train and bus lines. There are several stairs leading up to the house, so unfortunately it is not the most accessible to those with mobility issues. 18 and up. Looking forward to breaking some of that post-Passover bread with you!
THIS EVENT IS NOW FULL!
Please note: In an effort to balance the attendence of current B'nai members with non members, there may be limits to the number of registrants from either group of people. If you see that the registration is closed and you would like to attend, please contact Hannah at youthandfamily@bnaihavurah.org to be placed on a waitlist.
