Services: What to expect  

  As a Reform congregation our services are conducted in a mixture of Hebrew and English. Our prayerbooks: Mishkan Tifilah, have the transliterations (Hebrew written in our standard alphabet) side-by-side with the Hebrew to assist those who'd can't read Hebrew, but would like to participate in the prayers.

Friday night services typically last about an hour and a half and are followed by a 'potluck' Oneg. An oneg is a light nosh - (often desserty in nature) - that follows a service, to continue the festivity, be it Shabbat or a holiday celebration.

Saturday services when we don't have a Bat/Bar Mitzvah, tend to last about an hour. This is then followed by a Torah text study. Everyone is encouraged to participate, but you are welcome to just come and listen!

When we do have a Bar/Bat Mitzvah you can expect the service to last two - two and a half hours, followed by a luncheon type oneg provided by the family of the mitzvah.

We keep a 'Dairy' kitchen, that is we ask that you refrain from bringing in meat or poultry. However, fish and vegetarian dishes are great.

Dress code: We ask that you wear "casual dressy" - not too fancy, but nicer than cutoffs. In otherwords, don't show up looking like a shlub!

We have kippot and tallit available for those who would like to wear them. Neither are required, but we do strongly encourage those who come up for Torah honors to wear a tallis.
