OUR VALUES

We are kid forward. We create kid-facing opportunities and celebrate the inclusion of kids in all spaces. We welcome the noise, creativity, and unpredictability that children bring.


We are for everyone. We are a safe and explicitly welcoming space for all who are interested in joining us, including interfaith, racially diverse, and LGBTQ+ families and individuals of all identities and ages. 


“We were expecting you.” We are a welcoming home for everyone who crosses our threshold. We anticipate everyone’s arrival with warmth and joy. Whether it is your first time or you regularly join us, this community exists for you and because of you.  


We are multi-denominational and rooted in tradition. We embrace varying levels of observance and welcome community members to share their traditions. We offer opportunities to practice traditional prayer and ritual, while cultivating ruach (spirit) and kavana (intention). 


We believe “The more, the more.” Our offerings add to the robustness, depth, and fullness of Jewish life in New Orleans. We honor the importance of synagogues and clergy, and present opportunities to enhance participation and sense of belonging across our greater Jewish community.
