INFORMATION FOR VISITORS
SERVICES:
Chabad Lubavitch of Idaho does not have a daily minyan. If someone needs to say kaddish, please contact us and we will see if we can arrange a minyan.
Shacharit/Musaf services are held weekly on Shabbat mornings at 10:00 AM at the Chabad Jewish Center, followed by a community kiddush luncheon. We usually get a minyan on Shabbat morning, but it's not guaranteed.
Friday night services are held monthly on First Fridays.
