A Warm Welcome from the Temple Israel Family
Temple Israel is the spiritual home to 150 families. We are a strong and diverse congregation and think of ourselves as a large family and a place people comfortably call their “home away from home.”
We strive to enrich the lives of our members through the ever-evolving ideals of observance, lifelong learning, prayer, and acts of justice and loving kindness from one generation to the next. We strive to foster involvement and cultivate a sense of belonging by serving our community and the Jewish community.
We are a congregation that approaches Judaism with a balanced perspective, taking both tradition and the modern world seriously. We practice a Judaism that is enduring, yet relevant, intellectually and spiritually satisfying, and enjoyable. We strongly believe in the value of lifelong Jewish learning and offer a diverse array of classes and programs for every age group. We are a community of communities, welcoming participation in our Sisterhood, Men’s Club, Religious School, Mitzvah Committee, Special Events, Robert H. Spitz Community Dinners, and many more opportunities.
We hope you will join us at Temple Israel, and we invite you to come and actively enjoy all that we have to offer.
Rabbi Daniel Bubnis
Interim Rabbi
