“We feel so fortunate that our family are going to be part of such a wonderful community.”
Located on the edge of Epping Forest, the shul, founded in 1947, has a membership of around 200 families. It has hosted numerous simchahs over the past year.
The Abrams — who have two young children — will be at the congregation’s sold-out Shabbat UK dinner on March 1 and will formally take charge on March 24.
Loughton chair Gary Stern said the shul had been fortunate to find “a rabbi and rebbetzen with enthusiasm for Judaism coupled with a friendly and approachable manner to lead, inspire and enhance our community”.
