As a vibrant, egalitarian Jewish Renewal congregation, our services are experiential, musical, and profoundly joyous. We believe in going beyond affirmation by celebrating the Divine reflected in every individual. We proudly and enthusiastically embrace all genders, sexual orientations, races, abilities, family structures, Jews by birth, Jews by choice, and spiritual seekers of all backgrounds. Whether you are steeped in Jewish knowledge, part of an interfaith family, or just beginning to explore Judaism, you have a home here.

How to Attend

All are welcome. No tickets are required,
