Welcome First-Time Visitor!

Everyone is special at the Orangetown Jewish Center.

But first-time visitors are "especially special!" We're honored that you've taken the time to visit our website and learn more about the Orangetown Jewish Center.

Maybe you're new to our area, or searching for a more satisfying spiritual experience, or are looking for a place that loves kids AND reveres its elders, and is energized by its singles while celebrating its long-married couples. 

Perhaps you've recently re-engaged with your Jewishness, or have recently converted, or are in an interfaith relationship and are looking for a supportive community in which you can grow, learn and authentically engage with joy and purpose. 

Whatever your reason for exploring membership in our congregation, we're privileged that you did. And we're sure the more you learn about us, the faster you'll want to become a member.

Please explore our website to learn about all the programs and services we offer here. 

The best way to get to know us, of course, is to visit us in person. So consider this a personal invitation check out our calendar, and see for yourself why we say "The OJC is The Place to Be."

A warm embrace -- and a delicious Shabbat Kiddush lunch - await you!
