Kehillat Kernow stands with our friends at Heaton Park Synagogue at this tragic and sad time. Our heartfelt thoughts, love and prayers are with the victims, their families and friends, and with the whole community.
We wish Chaim Aruchim to the families of those who were killed and a heartfelt Refuah Shelaima to all those injured in the horrific attack.

Another New Year and a sad Yom Kippur.
Once again the Kehillat Kernow community gathered at the beatiful rural retreat of Roselidden for the Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur services. We were blessed with wonderful weather for Rosh Hashana and a beginnings of Storm Amy for Yom Kippur – which seemed in keeping for that particular day and the news from Manchester that greeted it.
