Jewish time, well kept.

The Luach is the calendar of Ahavath Achim Synagogue.

Luach (לוּחַ) is the ordinary Hebrew word for the calendar a congregation keeps — the board on the wall that tells you when to be where. Ahavath Achim has kept Jewish time in Atlanta since 1887. This site keeps it with you: every service, class, and simcha, alongside the candle lightings, Torah readings, and holidays that give the year its shape.

Days here begin at sundown, because they always have. When you see a hairline across an evening, that is the Hebrew date turning over — the reason an “erev” holiday starts the night before the date most calendars print.

Candle lighting, havdalah, and the halachic times are computed for this building’s own coordinates rather than looked up in a table, so they are right for any date you care to visit — this week, or a bar mitzvah eight years from now.
