Congregation Sha’aray Shalom welcomes you.

If you are new to the area, looking for a connection to Judaism on the south shore, or a long standing member you will find useful information here. As a community we are diverse and inclusive and I am honored to lead such an extraordinary group of individuals. In this 50th anniversary year we continue to embrace the rich traditions of Jewish life while creating a place that brings people together, to connect and build a sense of belonging to our community.  We honor those who came before us by continuing to grow into the future.

Becoming a member of Congregation Sha’aray Shalom gives you the opportunity to meet inter-generational families, build a Jewish life for your children, develop the spiritual connection that you have been searching for, advocate for social justice, educate yourself and your children or explore your passion.  Synagogue affiliation is an important choice for many reasons, and the temple community becomes an extension of your family, where life cycle events such as marriage, birth and loss are shared.

We welcome you to Congregation Sha’aray Shalom and invite you to our home.  Come and meet our congregants, clergy, professional staff and lay leaders.  Let us show you what a rich Jewish life can be. Take some time to wander through our website to see what we have to offer. There are many ways to become involved and I invite you to do so.

In the words of our sages, “If not now, when?” Pirkei Avot 1:14.

L’Shalom
