Email, phone, address — nothing fancy.

The office checks email and voicemail every weekday. Saturday is the Sabbath; we will get back to you Sunday or Monday morning.

Find us in Derwood, Maryland.

We meet every Saturday at 10:30 AM. Park in the lot, walk through the front doors, and someone will greet you. There is no dress code. Bring a Bible if you have one; we have copies if you do not. If you need to, slip in late and sit in the back — nobody will turn around.

For the Hebrew vocabulary you will hear — שָׁלוֹם Shalom (peace) , אָמֵן Amen (so be it) , תּוֹרָה Torah (instruction, the first five books) — we will say each one in English the first time, and you will catch the rhythm by the end of the morning. After the closing benediction we head downstairs for עֹנֶג שַׁבָּת Oneg Shabbat (the joy of Sabbath, our shared meal) . Stay if you can. The fellowship is part of the morning, not an afterthought.
