WELCOME
We are a community of people who recognise the true diversity of the Jewish experience and who welcome all new members and participants, especially those who are distanced or estranged from many facets of contemporary Jewish community life.
Our community is involved with those aspects of contemporary Judaism which both respect and creatively engage with diversity. We encourage participation in, and contributions to, our services and our after-service and secular events.
BKY welcomes:
- Jews committed to working out the implications of gender equality
regardless of sex, sexual orientation and gender identity - Lesbian, Gay, Bi-sexual, Trans, Intersex, Queer or otherwise
identifying Jews - Jews who want to work out a creative and evolving relationship, as feminists, to Judaism and being Jewish
- Jews who may not think of themselves as religious but who identify strongly as part of the Jewish people
- Patrilineal Jews
- Jews on their own who would feel more comfortable in a community which
emphasises individual presence and participation - Families seeking a Jewish framework for their lives
- The non-Jewish partners of Jews who wish to be supportive and to
participate in the life of the Congregation - Those who are exploring Judaism as a spiritual path, who may or may not have been born Jewish
Today BKY is an evolving Jewish community. We are a community whose ethos is to create a critical dialogue between Judaism’s religious and secular intellectual heritage with a view to voicing new and distinctive forms of Jewish dissent. We welcome all those who want to work out an independent and challenging relationship to Judaism and to being Jewish.
We take seriously Abraham Joshua Heschel’s teaching that: “Prayer is nothing unless it is subversive”.
We hold regular services and celebrate all major festivals. We have social, secular and study events where everyone is welcome. We hope you will find a spiritual and intellectual home with us.
