Worship
We gather together on Shabbat to pray, learn and celebrate life cycle events, including bar/bat mitzvahs, baby namings, auf-rufs, birthdays and anniversaries. Our Rabbi leads the service of traditional prayer, sermons and Torah readings, while the Cantor’s vocalization offers musical support, leading the congregation in traditional melodies, classical expressions of music and contemporary arrangements.
Education
With a state-of-the-art preschool, a thriving religious school, and continuing education activities for adults, Rishon fosters learning opportunities for all congregants, from new to old.
