The Tel Aviv Congregation for Progressive Judaism, the local group of Reform worshipers, announced today it had leased the hall of B’nai B’rith lodge here for High Holy Day services this year.
The congregation has been holding Sabbath services in the B’nai B’rith Club here for the last three months. Last year, the local B’nai B’rith hall had refused to lease its facilities to the Reform group, and had been criticized for that stand by B’nai B’rith lodges abroad.
