We are a friendly, growing community and welcome people of all levels of observance. Our services are traditional and we use the Masorti Sim Shalom prayer book. We have mixed seating and equal participation in services for both men and women. We hold weekly Shabbat morning services with special activities for children, frequent communal meals, and special services and social events on Jewish holidays. Our services are led by our members with regular support from Masorti chazanim and rabbis, and everyone is encouraged to get involved.

 

Community services

 

• Children’s services

• Noam youth activities

• Social and cultural events

• Aliyah Bnei Mitzvah Programme

• Community Events

• Burial society

 

Our aim is to grow and to provide more and better services for our members without losing the warmth and friendship that is so important to all of us.

 

• We look for opportunities to connect to members and potential members; we aim to welcome them warmly and give them a sense of belonging to the community.

• We come together to celebrate: to pray, play, support and care for one another and to take our part in the healing of the world.

• We educate our members, from pre-school to adults, to deepen their knowledge of and commitment to Jewish life and community.

• We depend on the participation and involvement of our members for our continued growth.
