Our Congregation

The congregation is named Kehilat Tikva Tova (Good Hope). The services are religiously correct, and traditional. The only difference is that no distinction is made on the basis of gender. So for example, when one is called up to the Torah at an Egalitarian shul, one's name is given, and both parents are referred to. That replaces the old system of a person's Hebrew name linking into their father's name only. Each Jewish person over the age of bar or bat mitzvah is counted towards the minyan. We are all of equal value in the congregation.


In ritual and liturgical matters, Tikva Tova follows the orthodox normative practice, except that no distinction is made in status or participation between women and men.
