Secret Shul-Goer No 26: Shul on a ship
Even when on holiday, the Secret Shul-Goer is always on the hunt for a Shabbat service
Secret Shul-Goer No 25: St Albans Masorti Synagogue
This shul visit was even better than watching our boys in the World Cup - and even if football doesn't come home, Secret Shulgoer will be coming back to SAMS
Secret Shul-Goer No 24: Muswell Hill Synagogue
Is this the friendliest community in North London? Our intrepid Shul-Goer found out...

After a break from regular shul-going, our correspondent is back, but a bit disappointed and missing a kiddish

Our secret Shul-Goer spends Shabbat at the sadly empty but very friendly largest shul in Essex

The service may have been relegated to the small hall this week, but as our Secret Shul-Goer discovered, this was no small gesture

Our secret Shul-Goer is overwhelmed - but impressed - by the use of A4 posters in this week's visit - both in and out of the gallery
The Secret Shul-Goer's awards for 2017
Want to know where to get the best Kiddush, or whose sermon is best? Our undercover writer reveals her winners....
Secret Shul-Goer No 14: New London Synagogue
Members of the congregation are more critical than our undercover writer in the Shul-Goer's latest report...
Secret Shul-Goer No 13: Mill Hill United
The design of the building is so disadvantageous to women that it skewed all aspects of the experience, writes our Secret Shul-Goer
Secret Shul-Goer No 12: Brighton & Hove Reform
The wooden chairs in BHRS are quite possibly the noisiest and creakiest shul chairs I’ve ever sat in. The slightest movement created an almost deafening creaking noise...
