    Shabbat Shiur - Playing instruments on Shabbat: a Progressive Rabbinic Decision Making special for Shabbat Shira

    9:15-10:15

    Why is it that we use instruments to accompany our prayer on Shabbat but Orthodox synagogues do not? Why do many Orthodox communities not use instruments even during the week? In this special shiur we will look at the textual sources for this Orthodox prohibition, and will ask how we understand these texts in our community. With Rabbi Josh.

    Shabbat Morning Service

    10:30-12:15

    Our regular Shabbat morning service is a contemporary Reform service led by one of our Rabbis, normally accompanied by our volunteer choir and the piano, with a combination of reading, chanting, song and reflection.

    On most weeks there is also a parallel service, meeting the different needs of the community. Occasionally these services take place in our main Beit Tefillah.
