WELCOME TO
THE SUFFOLK LIBERAL JEWISH COMMUNITY
AN INCLUSIVE COMMUNITY
Our mission is to provide a welcoming and inclusive community for local Jews and their families, including non-Jewish partners and family members. We offer Progressive Judaism services, using the Liberal Judaism Siddur; cultural and social activities, and links with other Liberal Judaism communities in Norwich and Peterborough. We also work with other faiths and secular organisations towards the welfare of our fellow citizens in the wider community.

If you are not a member of the community, you will need to contact us via the contact page. We will contact you with the details of the service and make the usher aware of your arrival so you can be welcomed properly.
ABOUT OUR COMMUNITY
SLJC is a small collection of people living in Suffolk and surrounding areas, who have a shared interest in meeting other Jewish people and pursuing Jewish matters. For some people this is confined to religious services and others have more of an interest in cultural aspects of Jewish life.
We hold religious services once a month, on either a Friday night Kabbalat Shabbat service or Saturday mornings for our Shabbat service, except when celebrating specific Jewish festivals. Festivals such as for the High Holy Days or Passover are held in members homes (chavurah style of service with shared vegetarian meal) or in hired venues.
We welcome all into our community.
