Who we are
We are a small reform Jewish congregation belonging to the Union of Reform Judaism since 2001. We are a “boutique” congregation. Most of our members come from the San Fernando Valley, San Gabriel Valley or Santa Clarita Valley. Additionally, (thanks to Zoom and live streaming) our membership has grown to include members living outside Los Angeles County. We are Jews from all walks of life who enjoy celebrating their Jewish heritage in a relaxed, welcoming environment. We range from Retirees and seniors to business owners and professionals. Some of us have been very religious all of our lives and others are rediscovering their Jewish roots for the first time in many years.
In 2019 we joined the Student Rabbi program at Hebrew Union College and are pleased to have our services led by a student Rabbi as well as our long time Cantor, Dr. Harvey Lee Block Ph.D who has such a wonderful voice he has
his own 45 rpm record.
We meet once a month for Shabbat service, we have a very popular Passover Seder every year and we observe the High Holidays with Rosh Hashanna and Yom Kippur services. Not to mention the other special religious services and social activities we have throughout the year like our annual Hanukkah Party.
We are the perfect congregation for those who want to attend services during Holidays and maybe a Shabbat service every once in a while. Our annual dues are affordable because we don’t have the overhead of other congregations. Come and see what a Circle of Friends really is. For more information or to attend our services please call us at (818) 754-2414 or email us at inquiries@hugathaverim.com
