i know a few of us have experienced being called up with “na l’amod” (a gender-neutral “please rise” rather than the binary gendered “ya’amod” or “ta’amod”) and use “mi’beit” (“of the house of”) rather than “bar” or “bat” in our Hebrew names - it’s great to see more communities taking this step to be inclusive!

A short guide to what some communities are doing to include non-binary Jews in their services, and halakhic ways to manage the gendering of Hebrew verbs and names.
