Guests are always welcome to our services. For reasons of security, we ask that you contact us in advance the first time
(see the Contact us page for details).
(Note: Shir Hadash does not conduct services every week. If you don't see a particular date on the calendar below,
it means we will not be having services that day.)
Please consider offering a financial contribution: Shir Hadash is a small congregation and we need funds
to continue to host our guest rabbis.
Shir Hadash is currently on summer break. Services start again in September.
