TEMPLE REYIM
"Reyim" means friends, and our friendships are the life of our community.
We look to the stories, wisdom, spiritual insights, and halacha of our tradition to bring meaning into our lives.
Our community is defined by the core Jewish value of gemilut hasadim, compassion and loving kindness.
Please join us for our 53rd Annual Kallah Scholar-in-Residence Weekend, which will be back in person at Reyim for the first time in four years. Our scholar this year is Rabbi Professor Shaul Magid, Professor of Jewish Studies at Dartmouth. Professor Magid will be teaching on Antisemitism and Anti-Antisemitism: The Struggle and Challenge for Jewish Legitimacy in our Time. You can find our brochure here to learn more.
For over 50 years, the Temple Reyim Kallah has brought us speakers who have inspired and challenged us. We invite you to help us continue the Kallah tradition by donating to us as a Patron, Donor, or Sponsor. A donation to our Kallah provides Temple Reyim with the resources to support this and other cultural and educational activities. A contribution in any amount is welcome.
Join us for our uplifting and wonderful Shabbat Reyim davening and dinner. $25/adult, $10/child ages 5-13, family max of $60. RSVP by e-mailing, calling the office or selecting PayPal Add to Cart button below.
Funds from Keren Reyim help assure the synagogue’s financial stability. This allows our growing community to build on the vibrancy of our programming and to enhance our connections to the larger community. Check out the Keren Reyim page for more details.
Please join us at 10:00 AM on Sunday mornings throughout the year for compelling lectures presented by experts in their fields. Our guest speakers will discuss a variety of topics including history, literature, art, religion and the social sciences all through a Jewish lens. Each lecture will be followed by a group discussion period and the opportunity for question and answer. The 2022/2023 schedule can be found here.
