The Ayalon park is somewhat of a divide between Hebrew Israeli and American Hebrew speakers. There are more Israeli type families from there until the bottom of RBS A, and ore anglo type families living on the other side.

Lately I’ve been going shul hopping trying to find a shul that I like so let me tell you about some of them. I started at Ahavath Shalom which is a very nice mix of Anglos and Israelis. Its for a kind of older established crowd-ppl that are living there with a warm embrace to all visitors and newcomers. There are a few Sphardi shuls next to it that are also very nice. Also on Nachshon there is a new sort of Shtebl at the end of the block.

There are some very established Anglo shuls up and down Refaim, Ayalon, Revivim and Luz. It all depends on what you like and what you’re looking for. This past Shabbos I went to Shivtei Yeshurin which is the last house on Dolev (the Q) and it was also very nice. It had the feel of an Anglo-American Baal HaBayit shul. R’ Yaakov Haber is the Rav there. We also have a Carlebach shul, a Cabad shul and even a Soleveitshik shul. There are shuls everywhere in every nook and cranny and there’s always a new one popping up so I’m sure you’ll be able to find a place that suits you best.

What kind of age group are there children-young or finished school? It will be easier giving a good picture suited to these people’s needs if we know or have some clearer idea of what they’re looking for.

Hope this helped. Lots of Hatzlacha!!!
