Religious Practices

The Committee on Religious Practices assists and supports the clergy in the implementation of the rituals and observances of the Congregation. We meet regularly with the clergy in order to serve as a sounding board for new ideas or questions regarding ritual practice. We may make suggestions or draft policy recommendations to the Board. In the rare instances in which clergy are not available, we are responsible for maintaining the ongoing observance of ritual practice, including organizing and/or leading services.

Congregants are invited to join the committee, and/or to bring questions and concerns regarding religious practices to the committee for discussion. Meetings are open to congregants and announced on the Congregation’s website calendar.

If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact the committee chair:
