[quote=Anonymous]You probably don't need to be there for the whole service. Though if it's two hours (as opposed to three-plus), it's probably a Reform synagogue, so I'm not as up to date on the exact customs there. People may be coming and going during the service at times, but there are parts you shouldn't miss, mostly around the Torah service -- the heart of the bar mitzvah kid's part. Other parts you shouldn't leave or enter during would include the Amidah (a standing prayer), which is also a long-ish stretch. Can you really not sit politely and quietly for two hours? Maybe you should just skip it if it's not important enough to you to find a way to deal.[/quote]
