Youth Service


Our weekly vibrant and energic youth service starts at 10:30am and ends at around 12pm. This service is for the youth between the ages 10-18 years old and is enjoyed by all its many regular members. The service is run by Andrew Goldman, Yaniv Halperin, Ellis Johnstone, Riki Halperin and Michaela Stern.

The Siddurs we pray from are the new Authorised Daily Prayer Book which has the new translation and commentary by the Chief Rabbi Sir Jonathan Sacks. In the service we do not say every prayer in this Siddur but only do the most important ones. Every week we have laynin from weekly Sedra.

During the service we take small breaks for the youth to talk to each other.

Normally every week we have the Rabbi and other guest speakers come into our service to talk to us and ask us questions about the week’s Sedra. This gets the youth to participate both individually and with the whole service and is received and enjoyed by all.

Every week we have a LARGE Kiddush for everyone that had attended the service that week. Some of the things we have at our fantastic Kiddush is Grape Juice, Cakes, Biscuits, crisps, Sweets, Chocolates, Haribo, Drum Sticks, Sour Sticks, Fizzy Drinks, Juices, Ice Cream, Ice Pops and loads more.

The service has recently started its own fund raising committee called “EMERGY” which amongst other things ran a very successful Masked Ball in December. This was attended by over 200 Jewish youth’s from all over London. As well as this, regular members have a chance to go on trips and attend the events we organise throughout the year, completely free of charge. Some of the past trips and events we had organised were a quasar trip, bowling day, rock climbing expedition, pizza film night and many more.

We organise these trips and events to thank all the youth that attend the Youth Service on a regular basis at our synagogue.

Thanks to all the Youth that attend the service we are able to continue these amazing trips and events and hopefully in the near future have even better ones.
