About
our congregation
|
|
We are an egalitarian,
unaffiliated synagogue located
in Ewing New Jersey. Within walking distance of The
College of New Jersey, The Greenwood House for the
Jewish Aged, and the JCC of Princeton Mercer Bucks.
Our shul started in Trenton NJ in 1909 as an
Orthodox synagogue. The congregation relocated to
Lower Ferry Road in Ewing in 1964 and shortly
thereafter affiliated with the United Synagogue of
Conservative Judaism. We use prayer book Sim Shalom
for weekday, Shabbat, and Festivals.

The Hertz Chumash is
also used during the Torah Service. Women are encouraged
to participate in our shul and can receive an aliyah, lead
services, and serve on our board. We recognize bat kohen
and bat levi, and women can be called up for hagbah or
galilah. Our services are conducted in Hebrew and English
to make everyone feel at ease. Transliterations are found
throughout our prayer books.
