Welcome to Ohr Yisrael
We are a very special shul that has fun, while taking its Judaism very seriously.
Yom Kippur Appeal 2026
We are pleased to announce the launch of Ohr Yisrael’s Yom Kippur Appeal. The theme we have chosen for this year is the cost of living crisis which is affecting so many people locally as well as in Israel. We have selected three charities which do such amazing work in supporting people who are struggling to provide food for their families- both locally and in Israel. The charities are the Borehamwood Hardship Fund, Gratitude and Meir Panim. You can find more details on their respective websites. We would ask you to donate as much as you can afford by sending your donation to [Federation of Synagogues, Account - 81314343; Sort - 40-07-24] with the reference. -Yom Kippur Appeal. Wishing you all a G’mar Hatimah Tova and well over the Fast.
