More ways to connect
As one of the most remote Jewish communities in the world, Beit Shalom of Adelaide is the ultimate DIY synagogue. Our members join forces to cook, bake, sew, lead services, teach Cheder, and look after one another.
A majority of Beit Shalom members were born overseas, and so we often become family for one another. Newcomers to the community are warmly welcomed into our diverse and vibrant congregation.
As well as the Sisterhood and the choir, we offer additional ways to connect. Please contact the office if you would like more details on how to get involved.
Walkie Talkies
The Walkie Talkies are an independent group who meet each Sunday morning to walk for about an hour and then have coffee together. Most are members of Beit Shalom Synagogue, but others are friends of someone in the group and have joined us over the years. Our routes vary each week and range from sections along the Linear Park, to the beach front, to Waite Arboretum and the Botanic Gardens.
Men's Book Club
Are you a man?
Do you like to read? And eat?
So are we. And so do we.
We read fiction and non-fiction with a Jewish flavour, and we talk about what we read and what it means to us. And we bring and share food. And through reading, we get to know more about each other.
Our group was set up after the Sisterhood group, more or less as a way bringing some of the shul’s men together in a fairly non-competitive activity. We meet regularly on Sunday afternoons at one of the members' houses, and we welcome new members.
