Shabbat and Festivals
We use a ‘set & forget’ streaming provision you should be able to view from here. Set up your computer to begin streaming before Shabbat comes in, ensure your volume is on, and enjoy our services. If you are interested in the reasoning behind our adoption of this system, click here to read an article by Rabbi Jeremy on the subject.

Daily Morning Minyan
Our final daily Shacharit service was held on 9 May.  In future, going forward, Shacharit on Sundays will be at 9am in person at NLS. They will also be streamed onto the website.  Second day Rosh Chodesh (1st of the Hebrew month) will be at 7.30am in person at NLS.  These services will include Torah reading and will be followed by breakfast.  When second day Rosh Chodesh falls on a Sunday, it will start at 8.30am and not be followed by breakfast, due to the Cheder.   We are looking to start a rota to ensure we get a minyan. If you would like to be on such a rota, please let Rabbi Natasha know. These services will also be streamed in our usual zoom room, unless otherwise notified nearer the time.

NLS on Facebook
Rabbis Jeremy and Natasha upload content to our Facebook page – www.facebook.com/newlondonsyn/videos. You’ll find extracts from the prayers for special days in our liturgical calendar, mini-sermons, and material for youth. Give our page a ‘like’ and you’ll see these offerings coming up in your feed.

Troubleshooting Our Digital Provision
We are aware of some users who experience complications from time to time. Please check that you are viewing our provision securely; make sure you can see https:// or a padlock in the bar where the web-site address goes. If you are using http:// our stream will be blocked.  If that doesn’t work, or alternatively, you can view the stream directly from Twitch rather than using our embedded provision. It’s always hugely helpful to know of any technical problems. Please email office@newlondon.org.uk with a description of the problem and include what device and software you are using.  Please note, technical problems will and do occur. We will be unable to troubleshoot on Shabbat and Yom Tov.  This is a system designed to be consistent with the observance of Shabbat and Yom Tov. We aren’t going to be able troubleshoot during these most sacred days and one of the great messages of our faith is that human plans count for little in the eyes of God. If things go wrong, and they may go wrong, sorry. If you are interested in the reasoning behind our adoption of this system, click here to read an article by Rabbi Jeremy on the subject.
