We know that joining a synagogue is a significant step – spiritually, personally, and practically. That’s why we offer a special first-year Chaverut (Partnership) tier designed to help you ease into our sacred community with intention and flexibility.
Our Chaverim Chadashim program offers a welcoming, accessible way to experience what it means to be part of our kehilla kedoshah – a holy community grounded in covenant, connection, and care.
Whether you’re exploring Jewish life, returning to it, or looking for a deeper spiritual home, this entry-level partnership gives you space to engage, belong, and grow.

In the book of Leviticus, we are commanded to rise before the aged, in Hebrew, “Mipnei Seivah Takum”. Our seniors planted the seeds of Jewish life for us, so we honor them and continue learning from them in their golden years.

If you are members in good standing at another synagogue, this seasonal membership provides access without the full-time commitment. High Holy Day tickets are available through confirmed reciprocity.
Chaverim, Vatikim and Cheitzi categories, if you choose to make your payment in full by ACH, cash or check before September 8, 2025, you have the option of receiving a 3% discount off of dues only (not Safety & Security Fee).
All financial obligations must be completed by June 1, 2026, with the exception of Religious School tuition, which must be paid in full by May 1, 2026. There is a minimum payment due of $180 for a chaver/chavera or $360 for chaverim, with an agreed-upon recurring payment plan of the balance which must be implemented by High Holy Days. If you do not pay your dues in full at the time of submitting this application, a recurring payment plan must be agreed upon in order to receive your High Holy Day tickets. Please provide ACH, credit or debit card or call the office to make other arrangements.
We ask Chaverim to contribute financially according to their ability. We offer a flexible financial model grounded in trust, dignity, and partnership. If financial challenges arise, we’re here to work with you confidentially and respectfully. Contact Kim Beame, Executive Director, for more information on financial assistance and membership.
