Services

We hold services nearly every Shabbat and for most festivals. Exeter is not affiliated to any of the movements and we hold a variety of service styles. For some services, men and women may sit together, and the service is conducted mostly in English. For others, we may ask men and women to sit separately, and the service may be more traditional in style. We try to make all services accessible to everyone regardless of previous preferences. Visiting rabbis and service leaders are welcomed from a variety of denominations.

While the synagogue is closed for building repairs, we will meet for services at St Mary Arches Church, Mary Arches Street, Exeter EX4 3BA

For further details of the proposed services for the coming weeks please click here.

Our Archives

There is a great deal more about the history of the community here. Our archives have been deposited with the Jewish Genealogic Society of Great Britain.

In particular, there is a link to an extensive section devoted to information about Rabbi Dr Bernard Susser z"l, now available through the Jewish Genealogical Society of Great Britain.
