More than its historic sanctuary, this community’s supportive clergy, warm culture, insightful programs, vital social action and meaningful services open gateways to Jewish exploration and lasting connections.

Wherever one is in the Jewish journey, all are welcome. The congregation is a safe space to wrestle with today’s challenges and discover fresh perspectives, inspiration and hope through Jewish culture, wisdom and ritual.

New to town or Judaism? Visit for Shabbat or holiday service, tour the building, attend an Intro to Judaism class or Torah study, or join one of many programs. Considering Jewish education for the family? Enjoy lively, music-filled Tot Shabbat, or explore the nature-based Jewish preschool. For older students, Studio, a modern religious school, provides a strong foundation for Jewish living.

Looking for hands-on social action? Volunteer with HaMotzi and Chicken Soupers, who cook for local shelters and fellow congregants in need. Join the Climate Action Team or Social Action Committee.

Offering many paths to connection.

A member of the Union for Reform Judaism, services are egalitarian, participatory and diverse. All backgrounds, identities, levels of knowledge and financial ability are welcome.
