Welcome to Congregation Agudath Israel. Our sages teach: "The world rests upon three pillars: Torah, prayer, and acts of chesed (loving kindness). We at Agudath Israel are proud of our role as a leading Conservative congregation that embodies these principles. Through an extraordinary variety of religious, educational, cultural and recreational programs, we help our members experience Judaism in ways that have personal meaning as they move through the Jewish life cycle. We seek to enable our members to ascend the "ladder of Jewish commitment."

I invite and encourage your involvement, as an individual or a family, so that you can contribute to and benefit most fully from the exceptional Jewish family and community that is Congregation Agudath Israel. We extend our hand in friendship to you.

Rabbi Alan Silverstein
