Services over the Pesach Period
There will be services this week starting at 09.45 on both Thursday and Friday.
We wish everyone a wonderful set of Seder evenings and an excellent time with tasting matzos and possibly different styles and recipes. We look forward to hearing stories about your Seders and customs over the Yomtov period.
Thanks
We would like to thank Rabbi Anthony and Gill Ross for preparing the shul kitchen for everyone over the Pesach period. We would also like to thank Gill and her team of Pesach bakers for all their hard work in baking for the benefit of the community. It is a big job and we say a collective thank you.
