Worship
Religious services at Etz Chaim are exceptionally warm and
welcoming. They reflect and deepen our sense of community. In our
sanctuary, the seats are arranged so we can see the front of the
sanctuary as well as each other. Ascending to the bimah requires only
one step. As we begin the Torah service, we take the Torah from the ark
and carry it through the sanctuary. Our choir sits close to the
congregation. The melodies
they sing invite participation by the entire congregation. We
experience our worship services as part of a community.
