Nefesh Leeds

An emerging new Jewish community in Leeds, UK,

a welcoming and open minded space,

to connect and engage with Jewish spiritual wisdom and practice.

Welcome

Nefesh is the Hebrew word for 'soul' and so it feels fitting to call our emerging community in Leeds this name, as the focus point every time we come together is to refresh and invigorate ourselves - our souls - through Jewish rituals, traditions and wisdom.

 

You're very welcome to explore this site where you'll find opportunities to join Nefesh Leeds in a myriad of different ways - most regularly our Soul-Full Shabbat mornings. You can also join as a member which will give you access to group spaces to connect and create new ideas together, and/or subscribe to receive updates from us, all on this website.

Welcome!

 

Soul-Full Shabbat Mornings

Our anchor in our week, our palace in time, is Shabbat, and we currently gather as Nefesh Leeds weekly on Shabbat mornings. Click through to find out more and sign up for a Soul-Full Shabbat soon!
