Our Mission and Our Members

Our Mission

We are an independent Jewish congregation open to all people of any cultural origin. Our purpose is to meet celebrational, spiritual, education and philosophical needs through exploration together; and to interact with the larger community by actively sponsoring and supporting diversity and inclusivity with harmony and peace-based programs.

Our Members

We are Jewish, inter-cultural and non-Jewish families with a love of Jewish tradition, a shared spiritual quest and a passion for social justice. The CAS family welcomes people from many backgrounds and with many spiritual touchstones: our members are Reform, Conservative, Renewal, Reconstructionist or Humanistic Jews. Many have also explored Buddhism, Hinduism and Native traditions, in addition to Judaism. Some were raised Orthodox, others secular. They practice yoga or they davven traditionally. They speak fluent Hebrew or are completely new to Jewish prayer. Our members are families with young children, elders, singles and Gen X-ers.

All are welcome.
