Shabbos Morning Groups
We offer engaging and stimulating youth programming on select shabbos mornings for children. Our talented youth group leaders lead shabbos davening, learning discussions, games, and serve snacks to all the children. At the end of youth groups, children join the main minyan where our youth boys lead the shul for Ain Kelokeinu and Adon Olam. Our youth group participants are all excited to earn BI Points which are used for an incredible incentive program where children can earn amazing prizes!

Bnei Akiva
BIOZ hosts the Philadelphia chapter of Bnei Akiva of the U.S. and Canada, which was established 45 years ago and is the oldest chapter of Bnei Akiva in the region.
