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.
9:15-10:15

Join Rabbi Hannah to explore traditional and modern sources and ask the question – is circumcision a thing of the past?
