YOUR TRADITIONAL EGALITARIAN MINYAN IN THE NORTHEAST

Leeds Masorti is a multigenerational, egalitarian and inclusive community who come together to davven, to celebrate the Jewish holy days and to learn. We meet for Oneg Shabbat at members’ homes and for Shabbat morning services the Marjorie and Arnold Ziff Community Centre, http://www.mazcc.co.uk. We celebrate “minor” Chagim with major events, such as our musical Chanukkah and theatrical Purim Parties, our Tu b’Shvat Seder, our ever popular Lag B’Omer bonfire and barbecue, our early evening Tikkun Shavuot.

WHAT ARE MASORTI SERVICES IN LEEDS LIKE?

Our services follow the traditional Ashkenazi Sidurim and Mahzorim, our tunes are traditional tunes performed in an informal and participatory (sing-along) atmosphere. We offer family seating. All are encouraged to join in fully, lead services and leyen from the Torah. Men and women are equally counted in the minyan. If you are ready for an intimate uplifting service, Leeds Masorti is ready for you.

WHAT DOES LEEDS MASORTI DO FOR CHILDREN?

We run a variety of children’s services and activities for Shabbat and Holidays, in an atmosphere of fun and participation. We want children to learn together through prayer, song and play. We want them to understand what they say and why. For the very little ones, there are always plenty of toys. We encourage a spirit of asking questions rather than imposing answers. Brothers and sisters reaching Bar/Bat Mitzvah age can look forward to be treated as equals.
