Bushey United Synagogue

NEWSLETTERS
of the Bushey and District Synagogue
1972-1981

In the Autumn of 1972, Ronald Cole, who together with his wife Jenny had become members of the young United Synagogue congregation in Bushey as newly-weds in 1970, decided that the time had come for the community to have a communal newsletter. With Rosh Hashana fast approaching, he initiated the publication of issue number 1 of the Newsletter of the Bushey & District Synagogue. The Newsletter continued to be published under his sole editorship until March 1975, when he was joined by Colin Fink as co-editor. In August 1976, Colin took over as sole editor.

The Newletters give an extremely interesting and revealing insight into the formative years of the congregation and its early members.

The following issues of the Newsletter were scanned
