Services in
Free Synagogue's Sanctuary, one of the most beautiful
and historic in the metropolitan area, are held on
Friday evenings. Men and women participate on an equal
basis.
At the conclusion of the service, all are invited to
enjoy refreshments and fellowship at an Oneg Shabbat
held in the Social Hall. A Bar or Bat Mitzvah is
conducted on Saturday mornings as part of the complete
Sabbath service.
 
Shabbat Worship Services...
Erev Shabbat Services are regularly
held Friday evenings at 8:15 p.m. in our Sanctuary.
Our services are designed so that all
in attendance, irrespective of Jewish background, will
feel comfortable participating. Services are conducted
in Hebrew and English. The majority of the musical
portion of each service is designed for congregational
participation. In addition, our Cantor, assisted by a
professional choir, offers deeper insight into several
sections of the liturgy in more elaborate traditional
and modern musical settings.
Following Friday evening services the
congregation is invited to an Oneg Shabbat where
congregants may sit and relax over coffee and cake.
Once each month, Friday Evening Services are devoted to
Family worship, and are led (in part) by the students of
our Religious School.
During the summer months of July and August, Lay
Services, led by members of the Congregation, are held
in our air conditioned social hall.
High Holiday and Festivals...
The solemnity of the High Holidays is
ushered in with Selichot, usually observed the Saturday
night before Rosh HaShanah. The ten days from Rosh
HaShanah until Yom Kippur are a period of reflection and
self examination.
