Our Shabbat Morning Participatory Services are full of joyous music, individual prayer and times of togetherness as we welcome in the Sabbath. As part of our commitment to empower members with the ability to lead services or feel comfortable enough to join in with the tunes and melodies of our service. As such, we've created a resource bank below so you can familiarise yourself with the music of our Saturday Morning Service below. Stay tuned for more updates as we also delve into the meaning behind specific texts and also how to familiarise yourself with other parts of the service.

You can access our Marked Up Shabbat Morning Service Siddur here, and if you have any questions about the service, or wish to get more involved in either our Shabbat Evening or Shabbat Morning services, do get in touch.
