Our Minyan

MESSAGE FROM THE WARDEN

The Minyan is one of the most important aspects of our Shul.  It is vital that as many members as possible support our daily Minyanim, especially to help those people who are saying Kaddish or those who have a Yahrzeit.  On a regular basis we are having to phone for people to make the Minyan but with some additional commitment from our members, we could avoid this.

If anyone can pledge some time to come along to a Minyan then that would be of enormous benefit, even if you can only attend once in a week.   If you feel you have the time to spare then please contact the Shul Office - or just turn up and join us, you will always be welcome.

We always aim to finish weekday Shacharis before 8.00am to allow time for those who have to get to work.  In the Winter months Maariv takes less than 20 mins. At this time of the year we only daven weekday MIncha on Fridays.  All the times are published on our website, www.buryhc.org.uk

Of course visitors are always welcome at our Minyan.  We look forward to seeing you.



Sponsor a Shabbos Kiddush or a
Sunday Bagel Breakfast

Why not sponsor a Shabbos Kiddush to mark that special event.  Or sponsor a Sunday morning Bagel breakfast after Shacharis.  For details call the office on 0161 796 5062


 
 
Minyan Alert!!

Help is needed

Gentlemen - the Minyan is in trouble.  Time and time again we are having to phone people to make up the Minyan.  Even worse is Shabbos Mincha when we can't phone and sometimes we therefore can't daven.  This is a great shame.

Boruch Hashem, we have enough men in our community to make up a Minyan - but where are you all?  If you could commit to even a single morning or evening a week, it would make an enormous difference.  Without the Minyan, believe me, we will have no Shul, it's that serious.

So please gentlemen, let's all make a major committment to the Minyan - come and be a "Minyannaire"

The Warden


Chazan and Choir

Our Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur services last New Year year were enhanced by a small choir led by Chazan Modi Spitzer.  You can listen to a sample of the Yom Tov tunes we used  by clicking on the links  below or right clicking to download to your own computer.   Clicking on a link should open a new window on your computer and launch you own music player.


Our Shul

Bury Hebrew Congregation is an Orthodox synagogue (Shul)  serving the Jewish community in the Sunnybank, Unsworth and Hollins area of North Manchester.  The Shul building was officially opened by the then Chief Rabbi Jacobovitz, in November 1976, and is the focal point of a community of over 350 families, providing a centre for the daily Minyan, functions, simchas, clubs, education.

The Shul is located on the corner of the A56 Manchester Road and Sunnybank Road and has extensive on-site car parking. Click here for a location map.

Visitors to the Shul often comment on its friendly and welcoming atmosphere.  If you are visiting from out of town, why not come to one of the Shabbos or weekday services?

The Schleifer Hall is available for functions up to 200 people and can be catered from our own kitchen. Book your next simcha with us. It is popular for special Shabbat Kiddushim, Simchas Torah, Purim and Chanukah parties as well as Ladies Guild functions and other events. It is also used extensively by the various youth and social groups which meet regularly in the Shul.
