Membership

Temple Isaiah is a traditional Reform congregation. We are a community dedicated to creating a place for Jewish families looking to fulfill their educational and spiritual needs, nurture their Jewish identity, develop lifelong friendships, and deepen their love for Judaism. Our members are single, married, divorced, widowed, Jews by birth, Jews by Choice, Jews of color, LGBTQ, or have differing abilities. Most importantly, we are a place to call home; a safe space where we recognize and appreciate your uniqueness and talents.

Please come and visit and meet our clergy and staff.

  • Temple Isaiah offers a variety of Shabbat experiences on Friday nights and Saturday mornings which are open to all.
  • Join us for Friday night Shabbat services at 8pm or once a month on the fourth Friday of the month at our Family Service, which begins at 7pm.
  • On the second Saturday of each month we have a Tot Shabbat service, and each Shabbat we have Torah Study, led by our Rabbis and Educators.
  • We also have many special services throughout the year to celebrate Jewish holidays and events.
  • At Temple Isaiah, you have many opportunities to connect with members with similar interests including an active adult choir, junior and senior youth groups, a Men’s Club, Sisterhood, Renaissance (a group for empty-nesters), Mechadeish (a group for widowed and divorced congregants), and many opportunities for social action and community service.

At Temple Isaiah we offer a full range of educational opportunities that start at preschool, continue with the Religious School for grades Kindergarten through 12th. Adult Education classes, such as Torah Study, Scholar-in-Residence programs, Torah on Tap, and adult B’nai Mitzvah training are offered throughout the year. You will find an experienced staff dedicated to working with you and your children. We welcome families and children with special needs and are committed to creating an inclusive environment.

Join us for Shabbat or an event that interests you to meet members and the Rabbi. Check our calendar of upcoming events and schedule of services. If you would like more information, we would be happy to send you a membership packet, add you to the mailing list for our weekly e-news.

I hope to hear from you soon!
