Becoming a Member

We appreciate your interest in Adat shalom and encourage you to surf our website to acquaint yourself with our synagogue community. More importantly, come visit and join us on a Shabbat morning. Services begin at 9:30 a.m. At Adat Shalom you will find a spiritual home, a warm and embracing community, and a place to enrich your Jewish life. When you visit us, please join us for our trademark member-provided oneg lunches.

Since our founding in 1988, we have attracted a diverse and deeply committed membership. Our members are Jews of all ages, life stations, sexual orientations, and income levels. We have attracted members from every branch of Judaism as well as those from other faith traditions. We welcome new members regardless of their Jewish knowledge or level of observance and take pride in the fact that we have created a culture that encourages and supports ongoing Jewish growth.

We work closely with new members to connect them with programs, groups, and classes that appeal to their interests. There are new member brunches throughout the year when you will be invited to a member's home to learn more about our community and how you can get involved. click here. Carol Bloomberg or Deb Posner, membership co-chairs, will call you as soon as possible. We welcome and encourage you to attend our Shabbat and holiday services as well as any program that is mentioned on our website.
