Rabbi Talya

Rabbi Talya Weisbard Shalem will be leading services for the congregation, and she warmly invites visitors to get to know the community. Her goal is “to offer services that will provide something meaningful for each attendee, from those who love music, to those looking for spiritual depth, to those who are more humanist or atheist and looking for cultural and communal connections. All are welcome.” She will be joined by Rabbi Ezra D. Weinberg, who will serve as the congregation’s cantor (song leader). A member of the congregation, Dr. Janet Encarnacion, will lead the congregation’s choir.

In keeping with tradition, the synagogue will hold its annual memorial service at the 115 year-old cemetery in Dodgeville, at 1 p.m. on Sunday, September 10, at which time the congregation will remember the names of congregants and family members who have died and recite memorial prayers on their behalf.

Non-members are welcome to attend. Contact the synagogue office at 508-222-2243 or by email at office@agudasma.org for more information about ticket availability and a suggested donation.
