Kehilla Community Synagogue

We are a diverse synagogue community, with families of all shapes and configurations. Folks who have traditionally been excluded from Judaism (no-Jews, LGBTQ folks, etc) are active in all levels of our community life, including Board service and spiritual leadership. We're a recognized leader in Bay Area progressive activism; including No on Prop 8, economic justice, and have long recognized and promoted the rights of Palestinians as well as Jewish Israelis to a safe and secure homeland.
