The synagogue is traditionally known by three names:
beit t’fillah
(a house of worship),
beit midrash
(a house of study), and
beit k’nesset
(a house of gathering).
Schaarai Zedek is a welcoming, inclusive synagogue that embodies these three names. As a house of worship, we pray together in diverse ways, celebrating Shabbat and holidays with meaningful, engaging services. As a house of study, we learn together, from the Amy Gail Buchman Preschool and the Flom Religious School through our seniors, with creative methods, engaging classes, and intriguing lectures. And as a house of gathering, Schaarai Zedek is a place for Jewish families of all types to come together for events including movie nights, community service projects, campfires by the lake, and live music and dancing. Whatever we do, our goal is always to create and support the Jewish community and have fun while we do it.
But most importantly, the
bayit
that is Schaarai Zedek is not just a house, it is a home. As we pray together, learn together, and gather together, we love being together. Welcome home. Welcome to Schaarai Zedek.
Shalom,
Rabbi Joel Simon
