“Where Judaism Comes Alive”

 

Our Purpose

We are a welcoming, family-oriented conservative synagogue that celebrates Judaism and Jewish Life through Ritual, Learning and Tradition, with a commitment to enriching ourselves and our community.

 

Our Guiding Values

 

·       We are a caring, comforting and inclusive shul that embraces our members’ distinct needs and serves as our inspirational Jewish home.

 

·       We are an egalitarian “House of Worship”, providing a connection to G-d through spiritual and ritual services and prayer, consistent with the values and beliefs of Torah and Halacha based Judaism.

 

·       We are a “House of Study”, with multi-faceted programs dedicated to educating our children and for the continuous learning of our community.

 

·       We are a “House of Gathering” that encourages each member to develop a sense of belonging, thus connecting us through common interests and needs.

 

·       We provide opportunities for “Tikun Olam”, repairing the world.  Our support includes the local community, the world Jewish community, and a long tradition of commitment to the support of Israel and its people. 

 

·       We are a contemporary conservative synagogue that integrates Jewish practice into modern life.

 

·       We are a diverse community that is committed to build and retain membership, and to encourage a spirit of volunteerism, responsibility, activism and philanthropy.

 

·       We plan for the future to ensure ongoing success of our programs and services and continuity of our principles and values.
