Our Philosophy

We come together in times of celebration and loss to improve our lives by offering belonging, support and meaning. We welcome nontheistic expressions of Judaism that elsewhere may be marginalized, providing uniquely secular and humanistic celebrations of Jewish holidays, Shabbats and lifecycle events reflecting our ethical core. We celebrate our culture through meaningful ceremonies but also through food, music, dance, literature and language.

With multiculturalism and diversity as guiding values, we celebrate our interfaith/intercultural, multiracial, LBGTQ+ family identities, those with disabilities and all household configurations. We welcome as Jewish any person who chooses to identify with the culture and traditions of the Jewish people.
