All the Reform congregations in Rockland celebrated together on Friday night, January 11 the first annual Founder’s Day service. All four Rabbis, all four Cantors, and well over four hundred congregants used a service created especially for this occasion that included excerpts from various Reform prayerbooks since the 1850’s. The Cantorial selections, augmented by a large combined choir, sung settings for the liturgy mirroring the sequential structure of the service.

          It is hoped that this celebration of Reform Judaism, our roots, our development, our present, and our future, will take place on an annual basis.
