Founded amid the exuberance of the California Gold Rush, Congregation Sherith Israel has welcomed the Jews of San Francisco and beyond since 1851. Our sanctuary, a jewel of synagogue architecture, has embraced and inspired worshipers for more than a century.
At Sherith Israel you'll find a contemporary Reform approach to our timeless traditions.
Our spirits soar as we:
Study Torah, history and our cultures
Pass our rich heritage on to our children
Worship in a spiritual environment embracing individual and communal participation
Engage in the work of social justice
Make meaningful memories at every milestone in our lives
Our inclusive environment involves Jews and their families from many backgrounds, including non-Jewish spouses and partners.
We’d love to get to know you. Please join us for Shabbat services, a holiday celebration or a tour of our historic sanctuary.
