Some of you interested in this might want to check out Temple Emanu-El in NY  --  
a Reform Synagogue with s=an audio stream of their Friday Evening and Saturday 
morning services.

Keep in mind that in assimilation into the U.S. Reform Jews based the Union 
Prayerbook on the Episcopal BCP c1871. They've made many changes since, but I'm 
sure those of you who collect historic BCPs all have a copy of one of the old 
Union books, I'm sure. I think it's an essential part of any Episcopalians BCP 
collection.

The Lubavitchers also have a handy guide for beginners. Audio recordings of the 
‘Mourner’s Kaddish’ and the ‘Rabbi’s Kaddish’ in three available versions: 
Chabad, Sefardic, and Ashkenaz.

Maybe as a New Yorker, I've been more attuned to this, but sometimes I think 
there's much willful ignorance of Jewish practice among people who claim to like 
to study religion and theology. People of the Book should really have a broader 
outlook.

Cheers,
