Congregation Leyv Ha-Ir~Heart of the City

We foster a caring community by nurturing each other's spiritual, intellectual, emotional and physical lives. We encourage and accept each other's varied paths and expressions of Judaism. We value traditional and contemporary liturgy in a participatory setting to explore an evolving sense of the Divine. We are inclusive and accepting of difference. We enhance our Jewish identities by study, social action, and participation in the larger Jewish Community.
