Religious Observance

In order to perpetuate Judaism, to serve the Jewish people of this community by providing a place where they may worship and the teachings of Judaism may be known, and to stimulate fellowship among Jews in this community and elsewhere, we do hereby dedicate ourselves to establish and maintain a fully egalitarian and Conservative Jewish congregation.

The form of divine worship and religious training shall be fully egalitarian Conservative Judaism, defined as follows: All congregation members, regardless of gender, shall have the right to full participation in all services to include, but not be limited to: be counted in a minyan, lead services, read from the Torah and/or chant a Haftorah, read prayers, open and close the Ark, carry the Torah.
