What are the Principles and Policy of Westminster Synagogue?
In 1961, the members adopted a Statement of principles and policy, which continues to guide the congregation’s approach to every aspect of Synagogue life and is provided to all members. This statement affirms a belief in Judaism as a relevant motivating power in members’ lives and calls for participation in the life of Jewry as a whole and in human endeavour in the wider community; for services giving voice to the authentic Jewish tradition in a manner suitable to the present time; for a democratic administration, and for a sense of congregational responsibility.
