SHUL REVIEW: Beit Yisrael at Yemin Moshe — Ashkenazi (Saturday Morning)

Rating: 5/5 — Friendly, with good kavanah and harmony, and an excellent kiddush.

Beit Yisrael, also known as the Ashkenazi shul at Yemin Moshe, was one of my favorites. Saturday morning services run from 8:15 AM to 11 AM at this Orthodox synagogue.

Great combination of kavanah and harmony, and the voices beautifully filled the space. Many English speakers attend, creating a welcoming atmosphere.

Members extended warm invitations for High Holiday services. The kiddush following services featured delicious treats, a great lasagna, and some tuna and egg salad.

Come for the food, get some great davening to boot.

Location: 2 Pele Yoetz Street, Yemin Moshe, Jerusalem.
