Worship

Prayer is a language that each of us speaks and hears in a different way.

When we pray together, we try to find meaning within the chorus of diverse voices. With engaging sermons and stimulating teachings, our Rabbi shows us how the lessons from the past are relevant to our lives today.

Our services are fully egalitarian (men and women participate equally). We believe we have found a healthy balance between traditional and contemporary styles. Services are in English and Hebrew. We use both traditional and contemporary Reform melodies.

Our Sanctuary

REFORM JUDAISM

Our facility includes a courtyard with meditation area and fountain, lobby, gift shop, sanctuary, social hall, modern kitchen, simcha room and cantorial soloist office.

A TIME OF REST

SHABBAT

We welcome all to attend our Shabbat worship services. Shabbat is a time of rest, a time to refocus ourselves spiritually, to distance ourselves from the stresses of the work week. We hope you find peace in our prayer and joy in our music.

JEWISH CALENDAR

Holidays

People often say: “The Jewish holidays are late this year” or “The Jewish holidays are early this year.” In fact, the holidays never are early or late; they are always on time, according to the Jewish calendar.
