SAMS - St Albans Masorti Synagogue

07/09/2026

An action packed few days at SAMS! First on Sunday we had more than 20 teen Madrichim coming for their annual training session. These amazing young people will work as Cheder teachers and teaching assistants this year. Then, we had our annual shofar blowing at the St Albans Cathedral with a record-blowing 5 shofarot sounded from the top of the Norman bell tower, and today, three of our amazing conversion students completed their journey, sitting before the Bet Din and emerging from the Mikveh as three new members of our minyan! אשריך!
