Welcome to the South London Liberal Synagogue
The South London Liberal Synagogue is located off the high road near St. Leonard’s Church. A warm and welcoming community, with a wide range of ages and backgrounds, we aim to ‘worship the Eternal One in joy,’ as in the words of our ark banner, engaged in Judaism and in the world around us.
Our Community
Diverse and inclusive, we hope to offer something for everyone, including activities, events, services and education, for children and adults. We celebrate Shabbat each week and all the major festivals. We are served by a full-time rabbi, an administrator and a dedicated team of volunteers. Please contact us to find out more.
Services and Events at SLLS
There is a weekly Shabbat morning service at 10.45 am in our sanctuary. Erev Shabbat services are on the second and fourth Fridays of the month, havdalah at varying times and shacharit on Mondays at 8.30 am (all online).
Services are in Hebrew and English, using Siddur Lev Chadash, the Liberal prayer book, and are led by our rabbi and members of the community. Our minhag is rather more traditional than in the past, while respectful of the classical Liberal Judaism of our founders. Family services, led by students from our religion school, are held from time to time.
Are you planning to visit SLLS for the first time?
It is always a joy for us to have people visit us for services. If you are planning to come, please contact us via [email protected] before you plan to visit, latest by Thursday at 2pm. This is so that we can warmly welcome you and help keep SLLS secure.
