We are pleased to announce that we have begun preparations for the renovation of the ekhal and extension of the Synagogue. All who have attended our services are aware of the great need to enlarge and accommodate the growth of our congregation and to add to the increasing religious needs of all the Sephardim of Melbourne.

It has always been the priority of Sephardi Jews to facilitate their religious needs wherever they may be. We are proud to have been the first Sephardi Jews to establish a Sephardi Synagogue in Melbourne where Jews from Singapore, Egypt, Lebanon, Syria, Baghdad, India, Morocco, Israel and many other lands have settled. The success which Sephardi Jews of Melbourne have been blessed with is a direct result of their dedication to their Judaism despite being separated from the main Torah Centres of the world.

In recent times we have noticed a great need to extend the reach of Torah prayer and kind deeds to our elderly and very young children by enlarging the premises of the Synagogue so as to create a new space where the community would meet regularly and where regular classes for the young could be run.

It is with the utmost of humility that our humble congregation is now requesting the financial support of all those who have visited our Synagogue at one time or another and also from all of our overseas friends and supporters.

The Sephardi congregation of Melbourne calls upon the congregations of Singapore, Switzerland, Great Britain, North and South America and any other place in the world to contribute to the funds and the energy in order to extend the synagogue for the benefit of our children and of those families and children who may land on our shores and walk through the doors of our Synagogue.

May all of you be blessed and succeed in your endeavours for all days to come.
