Rodef Sholom: A Reform Jewish Congregation in Marin County, California

 

 

 

Congregation Rodef Sholom is a kehilla kedosha, a sacred community that welcomes Jews and their families with open arms and open minds. We're linked to our past and actively building our future. We're multi-generational and multi-cultural. Whether you are married, single, with or without kids, in an interfaith family, disabled in any way, or a member of the LGBQTI community, we would love to have you join us for prayer, study, and social action. Rodef Sholom is a community that will stand by you through all your life cycle events, from birth and b'nai mitzvah, through illness and death.

Our aim is to help build Jewish lives that are authentic – to touch us where we are today, and still provide room to grow. In doing so, we envision individuals that are enriched and a community that is transformed.

• Worship
  Soul lifting and life changing -- the potential of prayer
  Worship can awaken, animate, challenge and surprise. It can shine a light in dark times and nurture gratitude for the gifts we've been given.
• Social Justice
  Repairing the world
  As Rabbi Hillel said in the Talmud, "Love your neighbor, and love yourself. This is the whole Torah. All the rest is commentary."
• Community
  Your home away from home
  Rodef Sholom is your spiritual home, a place to be comfortable, and a place to engage.
• Lifelong Learning
  Where does learning happen?
  Learning can happen almost anywhere: On a hike in the hills, within the synagogue walls, or in the Holy Land itself. And every day holds the potential for discovery.
• Israel
  Our promised land
  A spiritual homeland. An extraordinary achievement. A model of vitality, progress and hope. At Rodef Sholom, we celebrate Israel's sacred history and its unparalleled contribution to the modern world.
