The mitzvah of Hachnasat Orchim, or hospitality, is incredibly important for us. We will do our best to find meals for folks who don't have plans on Shabbat, and to help people from out of town find lodgings.

Want to help us do this? Click here to read our hosting information and find out how. We need and appreciate your help.

Meal matching
We do our best to arrange home hospitality between hosts who have space at their Shabbat meals, and folks new to the Minyan who are looking to meet some new people at a Shabbat dinner. If you are looking for match, please drop a note to Danny at meals@missionminyan.org, and try to do so by the Wednesday before Shabbos, and include important details like:

I'm a vegetarian / I'm vegan / I'm kosher and need to eat it a home with hechshered products and separate sets of utensils / I'm kosher but as long as any meat is kosher I'm fine eating anywhere / etc etc.

Please be complete and we'll do what we can!

Overnight Stays
Do you need a place to stay in the Mission for Shabbat? Here are some inns/hostels that come recommended from folks in the community:

Elements Hotel
1-866-327-8407
2516 Mission St.
Note: this is a hostel but it has lovely private rooms with private bath. It has minimal closet/storage space which is why it's a hostel. Very convenient and some of our parents have even stayed here!
