Or Shalom Synagogue is a Jewish spiritual community affiliated with the ALEPH Alliance for Jewish Renewal. We are creative, egalitarian, traditional and participatory.
Davenning (praying) at Or Shalom is a rich, musical experience.
You are welcome to join us any Shabbat beginning at 10 a.m.

When your volunteer community canvasser calls in the coming weeks before Shavuot, please take the time to have a conversation with him/her about Or Shalom and what belonging to our Jewish Renewal community means to you. How might you like to participate in strengthening our community - or what would you like to engage in to renew your Jewish spirit? There are many opportunities at Or Shalom to engage in activities that can lead to renewal of your Jewish spirit or provide others the opportunity to renew theirs.
We have already received $100,000 in pledges from 50 Or Shalom members towards our goal of $118,000 for 2012/2013.
