We had the pleasure of introducing ourselves and talking about good things of our congregation back home. Lots of up and down stairs here inside the building. Parking structure is not bad either. Congregation Sherith Israel is a wonderful place, and beautiful place. People here are friendly and welcoming to all.

They like me to describe themselves as 'a 170 year old startup', which is spot on. They're opening a preschool in Fall, 2023; have an active teens program, which recently traveled to Washington, DC to engage with elected officials and interact with other Jewish kids from across the country. So many other programs, including a vibrant volunteer membership network that cooks and delivers meals for battered women and children; a dynamic Climate Action Team; single's program; and on and on and on. A lot of reviewers focus on the (admittedly amazing) historical building, but to me the most compelling thing about this congregation to me are the warm, welcoming individuals of all ages and backgrounds who call this community their home! Check out Friday night services at 6pm or take a walk through its rich history every Wednesday afternoon at 2pm. You'll be glad you did.

I thought Rabbi Stacy and Cantor David were warm, lovely people, so inclusive. If you are looking for someplace to join, boy, this seems to be the place. Everyone I know (okay, three families at this point) feels the same way about the place. I don't want to say anything bad about any place else in comparison, because that's not what I am saying. I am just saying that the congregation here is very lucky. They just went on a working post-Katrina trip to New Orleans with high school students, and they have many other community programs. Caring is the word I would use to describe Congregation Rodef Sholom. It was wonderful.

Loved the philosophy, teachers, program, school yard and couldn't have been more pleased. Our daughter started in the Nevatim class at the Tiburon JCC preschool. Every teacher was exceptional with their lesson plans, emergent curriculum and their emphasis on engaging children with their critical thinking skills. That may mean an idea is pulled and developed from the interest of the class and explored more in depth for weeks/months if the interest is still high! The teachers created a warm, nurturing, supportive and engaging environment. Their outdoor learning classroom is incredible! It feels very rural and is beyond special. How often can your child say that it's okay to jump in the mud at school in my boots, we can rinse our boots off ourselves and hear the birds and see the deer on their walk to class? Our son joined his older sister at the Tiburon JCC the following year and both stayed until their graduation / end of year siyum celebrations with Etzim. We are not Jewish but loved the emphasis on the different values that were introduced: kehilah (community), tikkun olam (healing the world) etc. Our children and our family are better having had this preschool experience. I encourage you to book a tour and see for yourself.

For almost 2 years my mom and I visited the synagogue to get a real Jewish experience and first hand look at what Israel and Jews are going through in a state of war and anti semitism around the world ! As a messianic Jew who has the guts to enter a synagogue and study them , so as to emulate the preserved Jewish strain of knowledge and authentic Jewish thinking on Torah that persist in longevity in Elohim's grace . Although, my mom and myself were officially kickEd out the synagogue , due to what I posted on Facebook about Judaism general belief that Jesus Christ is boiling in animal feces in the second hell called "Tarturus "; and they only believe that Jesus is down their not the fallen watchers . I only addressed this in a general Judaism statement not what this wonderful synagogue actually believes. The Synagogue felt offended that I pointed out a secret belief that I uncovered in research and spoke that truth not any assumption. I never tried to proselytize or speak evil of these amazing people. But it is the order of Yeshua and the Apostle to speak or represent the Gospel in Jewish circles who still preserve the hope of a Messiah , and allow them to decide to banish me or kick me out the synagogue. I truly want to thank them for my Messianic Jewish authentication of Jewish service , Jewish Spirit and a place that I felt love having to be restrained in efforts to preserve distinctions that will be removed soon by the Messiah. I respect their wishes for the sake of Yeshua my Messiah and the authenticity of His Branch Order of Grafted Israel from elected Jew and Elected Gentile as One House.
