Join Temple Israel   

Our mission at Temple Israel is to create an inclusive center for our sacred community, framed through the lens of Reform Judaism. We are authentic and caring, fearless and dynamic, home to many different types of individuals and families searching for connection and meaning in their lives.  

Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, we have re-visioned what it means to be a part of something greater than ourselves, shifting to creative virtual programming, innovative and intimate life cycle moments, and providing much needed communal support with expanded social services and medical care.  We will emerge stronger and closer than ever, ready to take on the challenges that the new world brings. We look forward to seeing you soon.
