Discover the New Rodeph Shalom Vision Statement

♦ Immersed in Jewish time ♦ Guided by enduring values ♦ Compelled to moral action

We create profound connections

Immersed in Jewish time

Sustained by the sacred rhythms of the Jewish year, pivotal moments of the Jewish life

cycle, and generations of Jewish history, we are part of something greater than ourselves.

Living in Jewish time teaches us how to express meaning in the everyday, to gather as a

community, and to walk with each other through the joys and sorrows of our lives.

Guided by enduring values

The timeless wisdom of our tradition inspires our intentional quest for truth,

righteousness, and purpose amid the uncertainties we face in our world. We dedicate

ourselves to Judaism’s ethical messages to treat each other with loving-kindness. The

faithful, the skeptic—and those who perceive God in different ways—wrestle to renew

the teachings of Torah for our present and for the future of the Jewish people.

Compelled to moral action

In a broken world, we commit to be a voice of conscience and to engage in the work of

social justice. From our doorstep to our neighborhood and beyond, we welcome the

stranger and embrace our responsibility to connect with and learn from others.

We create profound connections

We seek meaning in shared experiences and cherish our diverse perspectives. We who

are new to synagogue life or have extensive Jewish backgrounds; we who are Jewish or

who share our lives with Jews; we who live within different family constellations, who

are of all abilities, gender identities, sexual orientations, races, and generations: we enter

the synagogue to celebrate, to learn, to laugh, to heal, to pray, to challenge ourselves,

and to connect with others about the deepest questions of our lives.
