SHALOM

and welcome to the website of

ST ALBANS UNITED SYNAGOGUE

St Albans United Synagogue is one of the oldest-established but still one of the smallest Jewish communities in Hertfordshire, yet fortunate enough to have its own purpose-built centrally-situated shul building, just around the corner from the station.   Affiliated to the United Synagogue for the past 65 years, it has just become a full constituent member of the US, enabling us to enjoy all the benefits of being part of a large and well-resourced organisation

Though few in numbers, our virtues are many.      Our reputation as a particularly warm, caring and friendly community is well-founded.    Here, you can rely on being not just an anonymous face in the crowd - your participation in our services and any of our other communal activities is encouraged and appreciated.

Our services tend to the informal, and even if you are on your own – whether you are single, divorced, widowed or a one-parent family – we’ll make sure that you are not left seated by yourself when you come to shul;  we’ll even try to make sure you are introduced to other members living nearby or with similar interests.     In a small community, it’s very easy to make new friends.

Best of all, you’ll find our annual fees extremely competitive.     The standard subscription includes the requisite payments towards United Synagogue’s funeral expenses scheme.

We hope this website provides you with all the information you need about what we have to offer.    Click on the the appropriate button for further information.    If you do have any queries, we’ll be delighted to try and answer them.    Contact us via the appropriate page, or e-mail:  info@stalbanssynagogue.org.uk
