Visiting Temple Emanuel

Absolutely! A number of our members are interfaith families, meaning that one spouse is not Jewish. Our Temple community embraces all families who seek Jewish community, or who are looking to raise Jewish children. Moreover, non-Jews, as well as Jews of any denomination, are welcome at our weekly Shabbat services, which are held Friday evenings and Saturday mornings. Temple Emanuel offers a year-long Discovering Judaism class open to adult non-Jews and Jews alike looking to further their Jewish education. To learn more about the Discovering Judaism class at Temple Emanuel, please contact the Temple office.

Everyone is welcome at our weekly Shabbat services, which are held Friday evenings and Saturday mornings. Start time for upcoming services are listed in our calendar.

No. You may attend any Friday or Saturday.

All men are asked to wear kippot. Women are welcome to do so. Kippot are available to borrow at the entrance to the sanctuary.

Children of all ages are very welcome at Temple Emanuel! Families with young children should sit near the door so that they can duck out easily if their children begin to fuss or make noise.

All attendees are more than welcome to come talk to the rabbi at the end of services in the social hall.
