Attending a Bar or Bat Mitzvah? Unsure what to expect? Please read our Guide to Receiving a Torah Blessing and Guide to Worship Services so you will feel at home. You can even listen to the prayers you will hear at our Friday night services.
There is so much to do at Kol Ami. You can learn Hebrew, have an adult B'nai Mitzvah, take a parenting or grandparenting class, learn to cook an exotic cuisine, listen to a lecture, study Torah, knit, sing, meditate, trace your family tree and so much more. Visit our Adult & Family Education page.
Dance, study, sing, think, ask. Judaism is for the total person. Judaism is to know yourself better: where you come from and where you might yet like to go. Here at Kol Ami, you can join this incomparable search with other wonderful people - in a community of learners – intellectually open, spiritually honest and joyful. As a community, our Temple seeks to help members grow spiritually to deepen their understanding of the Jewish Heritage, and to strengthen their connection to Jewish community.
We are a congregation that supports a wide range of programs and activities for members of all ages. We want to build a community based on inclusiveness, where everyone is welcome, regardless of age, marital status, sexual orientation, gender identity, a Jew by birth or by choice.
