Located in the Bathurst and Sheppard “Manor” neighbourhood, The Lodzer is a warm and inviting place, with programming skewed to adults. The bimah features Rabbi Eli Courante and Cantor David Young with Torah layning by Arlene Moshe and Haftorah layning by Philip Drash. The Lodzer was formed in the 1950’s by Holocaust survivors from Lodz. Poland. https://www.lodzer.ca/services daily 0.75 2022-04-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/620156db5b390a0b35a4c5e2/6b7bfa2b-51a2-4880-b874-58f053fda13d/Untitled+design+%2866%29.jpg Services - On-Site Shabbat Services 9:30am Shabbat Morning Kiddush Lunch Following We extend a warm welcome and Shabbat Shalom as you join us at the Lodzer Centre Congregation for Shabbat worship. As a Conservative, egalitarian synagogue, women participate in all aspects of the service receiving aliyot to the Torah and counting in a minyan. Accordingly, it is our custom that women wear a head covering when called to the bimah and cover their shoulders appropriately and that all men also honour our tradition by wearing a Kippah. It is also customary for Jewish men to wear a tallit during the Shabbat service. Since Shabbat is the most sacred day in the week, we specifically mark its distinction in our synagogue by refraining from the use of cell phones, hand-held devices, and cameras. Smoking is forbidden anywhere on synagogue property. During the worship service we request that you refrain from chewing gum and please refrain from speaking during the Amidah, the prayer of Silent Devotion and during the Torah reading. We hope that these explanations will add a special 'spiritual' dimension to your Shabbat experience at the Lodzer. If you are visiting, please let us know so that we can personally welcome you to our shul. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/620156db5b390a0b35a4c5e2/709e770d-12ab-4a6a-9861-fe7768c2396e/Untitled+design+%2865%29.png Services - Zoom Shabbat Services Since the Pandemic, The Lodzer Centre Congregation has utilized ZOOM Shabbat Services. This has kept our community connected during this long period of isolation. Our Zoom Shabbat has become so popular and so enjoyable that we are considering keeping it in place even after we’ve re-opened for in-person services. The link to each weekly Shabbat Service is listed in the Newsletter. Please join us, virtually! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/620156db5b390a0b35a4c5e2/e22816bf-319c-45ef-a1cd-a90d25c4346f/Untitled+design+%2867%29.png Services - Bar & Bat Mitzvah Minimum Age The minimum age for Bar Mitzvah is 13, and for Bat Mitzvah is 12, calculated according to the Jewish calendar.
