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 other holiday programs. All are welcome to join us for these programs and services.
We usually have services on the second Shabbat evening of every month at 6:30 pm. Please note that this is subject to change to accommodate holidays and special services. Please consult the schedule of services below.
If you are interested in receiving our monthly News email, please email us at synagoguekinstonnc@gmail.com.
Upcoming Services and Events in 2024
We have 2 gatherings each month: one for Shabbat services and another we call "Shabbat Social", which can be anything from holiday celebrations to talks presented by community members. Services and gatherings at Temple Israel are free and open to members and non-members.
We will also have a Google Meet link for those who would like to tune in remotely. See old friends! Sing along as if no one is listening (because they won't be if you are on mute)! Please send a request for the link to synagoguekinstonnc@gmail.com.
