One of the many legacies that Rabbi Benji will leave us with is the participatory service on certain Shabbat mornings. This is a more inclusive way of praying together, with more singing, Torah and quiet prayer, that has been trialed over the last year and has become part of the evolution of the way we pray as a community. The positive feedback to these participatory services has led us to start the creation of a bespoke service booklet to make the experience more accessible, and a proposal to continue with the services on a regulator basis (generally, the last two shabbatot of each month).

We would love as many members as possible to experience and enjoy this initiative before Rabbi Benji leaves. The service on Saturday 31th May we hope will be one of the first times that the booklets are used, so we are keen to fill the room and embrace this legacy together with him. Please come, and if you would like to stay for a Shabbat lunch in which we will reflect on the service and any tweaks you would like, then please book your place below.
