President's Message
WELCOME TO CONGREGATION SHAAREI KODESH! 
Welcome to the warm and vibrant community of chaverim (friends/partners) at CSK. We connect individuals with the communal experience of a Kehillah Kedoshah, our holy community. At Congregation Shaarei Kodesh we seek to meet the needs of our diverse population, from singles and young families to seniors.
CSK actively engages in all aspects of Jewish life. CSK hosts Shabbat and holiday services after which our chaverim linger over Kiddush lunch to connect and catch up. We welcome members of all backgrounds to actively participate in services. We celebrate with our families as our children reach the age of Bar/Bat Mitzvah, as well as weddings, births, anniversaries, and other personal milestones. In times of need, CSK provides pastoral care, shiva and yahrzeit minyans, in addition to meals, hospital and home visits to congregants.
This year we have come together in comfort and support following the terror attacks of October 7th and the continuing threats to the security of the State of Israel. Our CSK community is our home base of Jewish support in both the United States and Israel.
And YES! We are very social! Whether it’s a themed family Purim celebration, a tailgate party for a sporting event, Shabbat dinners, or an evening out, you will find an array of exciting programs. There is something for everyone from educational events, guest speakers, and learning with Rabbi Baum. CSK’s Sisterhood and Men’s Club host timely and relevant programming. Our religious school is highly regarded and led by a senior Jewish educator with over 30 years of experience. Our youth are actively engaged in CSK USY from 3rd-12th Grades. CSK is active in social action programming -Tikkun Olam - as we fulfill our responsibilities to the wider world.
Congregation Shaarei Kodesh is a Conservative, egalitarian Synagogue, affiliated with USCJ. We are a kehillah that encourages worship, the study of Torah, reverence towards God, continued education, Jewish culture, tzedakah, and unwavering support for the people and the State of Israel.
If you have not yet visited us, please join us for services or a social event. I encourage you to experience our unique community here at Congregation Shaarei Kodesh. We know this is a place where you will find warmth, purpose, a sense of belonging and meaningful friendships.
We look forward to warmly welcoming you to our Kehillah Kedoshah as we journey together on a path to holiness.
