Spend your Shabbat visiting one of our 1,250 Reform and Progressive congregations around the world with our weekly links to join Shabbat services online!
This Week’s Congregation:
Officially opened in 1936, Temple Israel Hillbrow is the Mother Synagogue of Progressive Judaism in South Africa. The congregation stands proud as a place of Jewish culture and religion in Hillbrow, Johannesburg, for the old, infirm, lonely Jews who live in the area.
They offer Shabbat and religious Festival services and have substantial library and historical memorabilia of their history.
In honor to their founder, Rabbi Moses Cyrus Weiler, Temple Israel hopes to renew their temple to its past glorious being – a place of importance of the spiritual element in human and Jewish Life.
Johannesburg, South Africa
