Shalom and Welcome to Our Community!

We are excited to connect with guests planning to visit Jacó and who are interested in joining a minyan at our synagogue. Baruch Hashem, we regularly have a minyan for Shabbat, especially during the high season.

We are launching a minyan sign-up diary on our website to better organize and ensure we have a minyan. This will allow visitors to register their attendance in advance, helping us coordinate and maintain this beautiful tradition.

Stay tuned for the launch, and feel free to reach out if you have questions or need assistance planning your visit. We look forward to welcoming you to Jacó and sharing the joy of Shabbat.

Warm regards,
