Inclusive, Innovative, Egalitarian, Welcoming
Temple Israel is a Beit Knesset (House of Assembly), a Beit Tefillah (House of Prayer) and a Beit Hamidrash (House of Study). Our goal is to nourish the spiritual and intellectual lives of our congregants and our community by providing educational, religious, social, and recreational activities which further the causes and objectives of Judaism, the Jewish people, and the State of Israel.
More than any other institution, the synagogue ensures the continuity of Judaism by facilitating the interaction of all generations and reinforcing the idea that the Jewish people are extended family.
We hope that you will join our USCJ-affiliated Synagogue to pray, study, and enjoy one another's company as our family opens its arms to all who aspire to live a richer, more fulfilling Jewish life.
