Welcome

Find intimate community in the big city.

Join us for services in our jewel of a sanctuary 

We are here each Friday night and Saturday morning where we celebrate Shabbat, gather as a community and celebrate our traditions.

Discover why Sherith Israel has so much to offer

Inspirational Shabbat and High Holiday services that feed our souls are just part of what makes this such a vibrant community. We are proud to fulfill the Jewish mandates of social action through community programs, like our weekly meals for shelters for the homeless. Our extraordinary educational opportunities for children, teens and adults are second to none. 

Celebrate the diversity of Sherith Israel’s Judaism

We love the openness of our congregation. It makes room for spiritual and secular Jews; people born into Reform, Conservative or Orthodox Jewish homes; interfaith couples; and those who have chosen Judaism as adults. Our doors and arms are open, whatever your religious background, ethnicity or sexual orientation. 

Meet congregants who are high-touch and high-tech

We are architects and engineers, doctors and lawyers, scientists and artists, teachers and social workers, chefs and writers. We produce video games, design software and stay home with our kids. We work at Twitter, Google, UCSF, San Francisco State, the California Supreme Court, and at schools, hospitals and restaurants around the Bay Area.

At Sherith Israel, you’ll find a Reform Jewish community where our spirits soar as we make meaningful memories together. Please join us.
