A PLACE FOR EVERYONE
University Synagogue is a wonderfully varied family. We are young and old, single and married, men and women, gay and straight, conservative and liberal, and everything in-between. We are newcomers and veterans, newlyweds, families and empty nesters. Some of us come from different faiths. Many of us have marriages of mixed faiths. And yet we all belong. Together we make a congregation that is both stimulating and comforting.
ROOM FOR THOUGHT
We are a challenging Synagogue, searching for truth and embracing reality. In other words, we don’t ask you to leave your intellect at home. We love to learn and discuss, and we strongly believe that there are many ways to be a Jew and a human being.
CREATIVE MODERN JUDAISM
We respect and honor tradition, and we feel comfortable creating new traditions, as well. We are creative and unpretentious, and we have a good time learning, laughing, celebrating and debating our way through modern Jewish life.
