Temple Israel in Kinston, North Carolina, is a Reform Jewish synagogue in rural eastern NC. While once a vibrant Southern Jewish community, only a few members remain. Nevertheless, we are a warm and welcoming group and encourage visitors to join us for our monthly lay-lead Shabbat services, High Holy Day services, and our special holiday services.
We usually have services on the first Shabbat evening of every month at 7:00 pm. Please note that this is subject to change to accommodate holidays and special services. Contact us by the email or phone below to verify the time of the service for that particular month.
Upcoming Services and Events in 2020
Due to the current health emergency, there will be no services until further notice. Please contact us by phone (252-522-3837) or email (synagoguekinstonnc@gmail.com) for updates.
In the meantime, many Reform congregations are presenting services via live streaming on Facebook. For a list of these, check out https://reformjudaism.org/attend-shabbat-services-online.
You can follow along with the services that use the most current siddur available online: Mishkan T'filah for Shabbat - Central Conference of American Rabbis (click on this title for access).
Should anyone need a Mi Shebeirach or Kaddish for a loved one, please contact us by phone or email, and we will accommodate remotely.
In the meantime, please be careful and follow the advice of the experts. Stay well!
All are welcome to join us for these programs and services.
