Festival Service Times

Below are service times for Rosh Hashonah, Yom Kippur, Shemini Atseret, Succhot and Simchat Torah

Please note - visitors especially, you do not have to pay or get a ticket, to attend any of our services.
   
Donations - There is a donation box in shul BUT this cannot be used on festivals except Chanuka and Purim.
However, any donation you wish to give will be very welcome and this can be handed to Jerry, our Synagogue Custodian, in an envelope. You will receive a letter of thanks once it has been banked.   

ALL visitors are very welcome, regardless of orthodoxy, but please be respectful and follow the orthodox guidelines as follows:  Gentlemen should sit downstairs and have their heads covered. You can borrow a yamalke (kippur). Ladies sit upstairs, unless they cannot climb stairs. In that case they can sit downstairs, but arrange it with the synagogue custodian, Jerry. For disabled visitors we have a portable disabled ramp, that needs to be set up so please phone or email Jerry to arrange it. (number below).   

Please stay for Kiddush and refreshments and a chat after the service.  For further details please phone either Anna on 017818 094 894/01822614203 or email: imannahi@hotmail.com
