Wow, my 50th review came so quickly and even though I know there will be plenty more, I did want…read morethis one to be for something that had meaning to me. Occasionally, I see a review for a church, but rarely a synagogue, so I thought I would sing the praises of the synagogue where my family has been a member for 3 years, Temple Ramat Shalom. Ramat Shalom is an intimate, community oriented congregation that welcomes families, single adults, and people from all Jewish backgrounds, including interfaith families. When you walk into a service at Ramat Shalom, the staff and congregation are casual, very friendly, warm, and welcoming. The friendly spirit here starts at the top with Rabbi Andrew, a wonderful teacher, spiritual leader, and caring friend. He has been a cheerleader in times of joy and a great comfort in times of sorrow. He speaks to you like a "real person and friend", which is something I have not always seen rabbis or religious leaders do. Our Cantorial Soloist Debbie recently started with Ramat Shalom but I believe she fits right in and has been doing a fantastic job. She has an awesome voice and rocked a packed house with a "Rock Shabbat" last week . Not all services are "rock" but most do revolve around music. To me, this is a very fun and spirited type of service, not like the boring and dour services I grew up going to. Children are very important at Ramat Shalom. Little kids will never get stern looks if they make noise during services. There is a one day a week Hebrew School on Sundays and plenty of activities for both younger and older children. We do our best to get to services and get our kids to Hebrew School, but what I love about thiscongregation is that there is no judgment. The Temple is very understanding of our very busy lives (work, school, family, sports) and appreciates that we so our best.! We certainly appreciate Temple Ramat Shalom's warm caring, and understanding attitude.

From the owner: small orthodox synagogue located on Hollywood Beach. It is nestled among the many condominium and…read morerental apartment buildings that line the beaches of Hollywood and Hallandale Beach and is within walking distance of most of the area's residents. The synagogue is supported by a dedicated core of local residents as well as many friends from cities throughout North America who spend part or all of their winter in South Florida. Shacharis, Mincha, and Maariv services are held throughout the year. Seating for the High Holy Days is free of charge, however, reservations are necessary. All services are conducted in a warm, friendly atmosphere, giving the shul a haimish feeling. ArtScroll prayer books, with prayers in Hebrew and an English translation, are used for all services. The synagogue has an active sisterhood that meets monthly during the winter.Each meeting includes a period of study, a time for socializing and the planning of activities for fund raising and for holiday enhancement. Refreshments are served at each meeting and all women are welcome.

My children have grown up here too, and we've all built lasting friendships and deep spiritual connections within this wonderful community. The clergy and staff are truly passionate, caring, and dedicated to making everyone feel at home. If you're searching for a place to call your spiritual home, I highly recommend Temple Kol Ami Emanu-El. Friday evening services are open to the public and followed by a complimentary, delicious Shabbat dinner, creating a welcoming and warm environment for all. There's always something going on--events galore and so many opportunities to get involved. They've just completed the first phase of renovations, and both the sanctuary and the new ballroom are absolutely stunning. This temple has truly enriched our lives, and I encourage anyone looking for a meaningful, spiritual community to visit!

They replaced worship with acts of what they perceive as Justice. In other words, sadly, they are a tv commercial for all things Democrat. There is no room for any diversity of thought. If you think Trump is more likely to end the war and bring home the hostages you will feel extreme discomfort here. If you think anti semitismm comes from Democrats and the Left ( which of course it does!) then do not stop foot here. If you are very much a left winger you will like it here and this shul is a 5. If you are even considering a vote for DiSantis or Trump you should find another temple.
