Where traditional and dynamic Judaism come alive

When I speak on college campuses, I am often asked, are Jews a religion, are Jews a race, are Jews a nationality, and the answer is that Jews pre-date all of those categories. Jews pre-date the modern concept of race. Jews pre-date the modern concept of nationality. Jews pre-date the concept of religion.
Every non-Jewish society has tried to fit Jews into whatever identity boxes it knows best, but Jews pre-date the box. Jews are actually a type of group that was common in the ancient Near East and very uncommon in the West today, a joinable tribal group with a shared history, homeland, and culture.
What I just said is like a paragraph in English, but in Hebrew is one word that’s two letters long, Am (עם).
We are Am Yisrael (עם ישראל), the People of Israel.

Shabbat, Holidays, Minyan
Our spirituality is lively, traditional, participatory, eclectic, and egalitarian. Wherever you are in your Jewish journey, your presence and participation are welcome.
Please share in our weekly Shabbat kiddush lunch and introduce yourself to our community. We look forward to meeting you.




Education Across the Generations
Teaching and learning across the spectrum are central to Jewish identity. We encourage participation in our many opportunities to learn together and to share your own teachings. We are proud of our Mercaz religious school and many Adult Education offerings.
We are also particularly privileged to host two phenomenal libraries, the Central Valley Holocaust Educators' Network (CVHEN) and the Kashenberg, Ostrow, Hayward (KOH) Library and Cultural Center, whose extensive collections deepen our connection to our faith, people, history, and identity.

Social Action, Cultural, Communal
Share in building a living, breathing, dynamic Judaism that values social interaction and tikkun olam, the betterment of the world.
We invite you to participate with us in shaping our community through Jewish activity and repairing the world one step at a time.
