Sponsor an Oneg

Sponsoring an oneg is a beautiful way to connect with fellow congregants and welcome in Shabbat together as a community. Our oneg begins at 5:00pm and Shabbat services start at 5:30pm. We are looking for volunteers to sponsor an oneg. Temple B'rith Shalom relies on your ongoing support and help in order to continue having onegs in the future.

The temple will gladly provide the wine, grape juice, and challah for each oneg. We will also provide any paper products and utensils needed. We are also happy to reimburse you for your expenses up to $25 with a receipt of your purchase.

We are looking to serve simple and delicious appetizers at our oneg. Our aim is not to serve a full meal, but rather small bites we can eat while we schmooze.

Here's a list of suggested items to serve:  

• Cheese and crackers   
• chips with guacamole
• fruit and veggie trays
• cookies or brownie bites
• Hummus and pita

We welcome other delicious ideas, but kindly ask the oneg is Kosher (typically dairy, no meat or shellfish). 

Setting-up and Cleaning afterwards

If you are sponsoring an oneg, please arrive early to help set up the oneg tables for service. We recommend coming around 4:45pm to get everything set up. If you would like to come earlier, we will happily accommodate and please call the office at (928) 708-0018 or email to let us know. 

After the service concludes, please help to put away the food. The tablecloths will also need to be removed from the tables and folded. Please wash any dirty dishes as we do not have a dishwasher in our kitchen. 

We are also grateful for anyone who wishes to financially sponsor an oneg. To make a donation to sponsor an oneg now, please click here.
