Our Ideology
The community seeks to maximize women’s participation in the services, including leading the worship, teaching the community and holding key lay leadership positions, while consistently searching for avenues within the halakha to advance women’s roles even further. Specifically, women participate in the services by leading Kabbalat Shabbat, Psukei D'zimra, taking out and returning the Torah to the Ark, reading Torah and haftarot, giving D'vrei Torah, and leading certain other prayers (e.g. Hallel Katan, Avinu Malkenu during the High Holidays, etc.). Please visit the Jewish resources section on this website for links to relevant articles and halakhic resources.

Membership dues

Dues for this year will be 550 NIS per family and 275 NIS per single/single-parent family. These funds will be used to cover the ongoing expenses of the kehilla over the year, including rent, insurance for the sifrei Torah, setting up and cleaning up the bet Knesset, children’s activities, kiddushim, cultural events, siddurim, etc.

Among other things, paying membership dues will guarantee a reserved seat for Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur.

On Motzei Shabbat Nitzavim Vayelech, Sat. night Sept 4, you may bring your dues and completed forms to slichot at the Bet Knesset, starting at 21:30. We cannot promise reserved seats for anyone who returns the form and payment after this date.

High Holiday Seats

Seat reservation for Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur will be done on-line this year. Please fill in the details on the on-line form. As there will be some families going away, and others with guests, please fill out the exact amount of seats you will need on the on-line form. We will make every effort fulfill requests. Due to space limitations, we cannot promise seats for children under 10.
