Looking for hospitality?
The community is so happy to have you here and we are happy to share our warmth, passion, and great food. If you'll be around and want to share your Shabbat or Yom Tov meals with members of the community, please contact our hospitality committee at hospitality@emekberacha.org
Please note that our hospitality program cannot guarantee availability every week. The number of hosts and visitors varies each time, and we must prioritize those who come for medical or business reasons. We recommend that you make a "Plan B" for your stay, while we try to match you up with a host. Thanks in advance for your understanding.
