Our MissionCongregation Or Ami strives to be a warm and welcoming center of Jewish life built on the foundation of Torah

(Jewish Text and Tradition), Avodah (Spiritual Fulfillment), and G’milut Chasadim (Acts of Lovingkindness). We embrace the varied needs and rich diversity of our congregants, our community, and the Jewish people.

We endeavor to create an inviting and inclusive community that promotes spiritual fulfillment for our congregants and supports their search for God. We take pride in the strong partnership among our clergy,

professional staff, lay leaders, and congregants. Guided by Jewish values, we are strengthened by our active volunteerism and informed decision-making. We uphold the principles and ideals of the

Reform movement and are a member of the Union for Reform Judaism.
